Hint - Determining Mutual Visibility.


Use the Observer/QTH Information Window to set up some locations of interest in SPECIAL.QTH. These locations can then be displayed on the map ( Options:Show Special Sites). When the satellite footprint includes any pair of locations, they have a mutual visibility window. Use the Calc:Step or Calc:Pseudo-Real-Time modes to schedule a QSO. Set a starting time in Step mode, then switch to pseudo-real-time to see the motion of the satellite.
Alternatively, you can get an instantaneous list of all known DX QTHs visible from one satellite from the Functions:Show DX option.
Finally, you can get a list of past or future windows with the all of the stations in SPECIAL.QTH over any specified interval, using the Print Ephemeris... option.
