    That worked perfectly.. Thanks..
    
    It has just dawned on me that I have never used this laptop to control my
    LX200 and that it does not have a serial port..
    
    Maybe the empty Network "phone jack" will work directly with the RS-232
    port???
    
    Or something that slides into the laptop card slot??
    
    Seems I have just found my next project.. Like I did not have enough of
    those!

    You don't even have to copy the elset files, just
    "Open File" from the bottom row, middle!
    SatTrack will remember the directory AND the file name
    to next run.
     
    I had a similar problem, but didn't investigate it, since I find manual
    download from SpaceTrack easy enough.

    Hmmmm.. I cannot get Satellite tracker to download the TLE's..
    
    Can I copy the elements from the Heavensat directory, which downloads them
    fine???
