Jim, I use SATPC with a serial/usb adapter so cannot speak to your specific
set up. However, I recently set up my FoxDelta (serial) for full az/el and
noting worked. It really stumped me until I realized I neglected to match
the FD 9600 baud rate with the associated SATPC server baud rate. Once I
corrected that, all worked as it should. So be sure baud rate is correctly
set.

Subject: [amsat-bb] FoxDelta ST2-0417 USB setup help
I recently bought a FoxDelta ST2-0417 USB rotor interface for my Yaesu
G-5500 rotor.? I have the ST-2 communicating with the rotor just fine. I can
see the azimuth and elevation readout and using the ST2 pushbuttons, I can
control both just fine. ? However, I can't get it to communicate properly
with my computer.? I am running a Dell desktop under Windows 10 and have
installed the CH360G driver.? The ST2 shows as
COM8 according the the device manager.? If I unplug the USB cable, the
Device Manager confirms that COM8 goes away and when I plug the cable back
in, COM8 returns.? I initially was trying to use Nova for Windows (which I
have used for 20+ years).? I tried every software interface setting (using
COM8) and the best I could get a couple weeks ago was Azimuth display and
control (no elevation display, but it appeared that it tried to control
elevation), but can't manage to replicate that today. Everything shows
either 0.0 / 0.0 or ---- / ---- for the rotor pointing in Nova.
Somewhat out of desperation, I downloaded SatPC32 and can't even get that
far.? As far as I can tell, every rotor type is expecting a parallel port
interface.? Keep in mind that I have never seen SatPC32 until an hour ago,
so that may be my issue.
My preference would be to use Nova for Windows, but if that can't be made to
work, I CAN switch over to SatPC32.? In either case, the software will be
used exclusively for rotor control and not doppler correction (not using a
radio that supports that).
Do you have any suggestions?

Greg,
Thanks for the valuable email. your info has been added to my 5500 manual.
My question is, if they're still manufacturing the 5500, where's the
switches coming from? Do they have stock for manufacturing but unavailable
for spare parts?

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
I recently installed Gpredict and Hamlib on my Raspberry Pi which runs
Raspbian. I'm unable to control my IC-910 because of a known bug.
I'd like to rebuild them from source code and I've located a patch. The
thing is that the patch is a directory, not a single file. I don't
normally work with Linux and I have no idea how to apply that patch
directory to the original code.
Does anyone know how to go about it?
I could try the brute-force method by physically adding or exchanging the
patch files, but I don't think that's a good idea. I've found some
information on doing something like that using the commands "diff" and
"patch" but, when I tried those methods, I must have done something wrong
as I get some rather cryptic responses.
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Have you tried the GPredict Forum? Thats where I learned about the

the patch author or Alex Csete would be happy to describe the process.
