Ham Satting: Multi-platform Amateur Radio Satellite Tracking App

Demonstrates the capabilities of Ham Satting, a multi-platform application developed by A41UX for amateur radio satellite tracking. The resource details features such as real-time visualization of over 100 amateur satellites, precise pass predictions, and integrated QSO logging with auto-fill for satellite-specific frequencies and modes. It also covers advanced functionalities like QO-100 geostationary satellite tracking, providing azimuth, elevation, and distance without external API keys, and a Sat Match feature to identify mutual-visibility windows for two-way contacts between two grid squares. The application supports SSTV decoding from audio recordings and integrates with Hams.at for displaying and announcing amateur-satellite rover activations.

The application's desktop versions (macOS, Windows, Linux) include a live tracking screen with Doppler-corrected uplink/downlink frequencies, capable of driving radios and rotators over network connections using protocols like Hamlib or proprietary interfaces for Icom, Kenwood, and Elecraft rigs. Field results from the July and September 2026 updates confirm the addition of new packet digipeater satellites like MARINA and KOSTKA, and corrections to orbital elements for 49 satellites. The Rig Control and Rotator Control features are experimental but offer hands-free operation, with specific models verified on hardware. The app also provides APRS live layer integration, scheduled service events for frequency overrides, and an AMSAT Live Activity Indicator for real-time satellite status.
