There are many; see http://satobs.org/orbsoft.html http://www.celestrak.com/software/sa...sat-trak.shtml A lot of these are free/share/cheapware, so I'd suggest you try a few and see what suits you. STSPlus, SkyMap and SatSpy are popular graphics-oriented programs that, AFAIK, run under XP although their roots go back years. Quicksat is a text-based one used by many serious amateurs. Note that a number of general-purpose commercial astronomy programs like Starry Night and Project Pluto now incorporate satellite tracking capability.

Thanks, David David Ransom, author of the program, is retired. He has had recent health problems. Here is his latest note - July 4, 2003: "Thanks for all the inquiries! Vicki and I are in the process of moving from Sedona, Arizona, back to Pacific Palisades in Southern California. That should all be completed by the end of July, a major project of course. My health has been causing some concern but we'll muddle through. Meanwhile, David Cottle is keeping the TLEs up to date. Thanks, David! David H. Ransom, Jr. 1492 Paseo de Oro Pacific Palisades, CA 90272 USA ---------- w9gb
