Hi Tony, Sergei and all,
OK, for the interest on FBB SATellite area...
Just for information the SATDOC and SATUPDAT (x)FBB tools was updated
on September 2007 and so I think that a further update is recommended.
However DOS/Windows versions are compiled until the previous one
for Linux... (Satdoc 2.8.2 and Satupdat 1.85).
I just download them from author site and intend to send to PR network.
At moment I've no BorlandC for compiling the last source codes...
However the banner of last (Linux) releases follows (also useful for
proper usage):
-------
SATellite DOCumentation program for F6FBB BBS
using ANS-WSR AMSAT SATELLITE NEWS bulletin files
Version 2.8.3 - F6BVP, Bernard Pidoux - f6bvp@amsat.org
Usage: SATDOC [-i] <filename> (see doc file)
-------
-------
Update of F6FBB's BBS satellite data base orbital parameters
Version 1.86 - September 2007 - Bernard Pidoux, f6bvp@amsat.org
Usage: satupdat file_name<.txt> </option> </option> </option>
Reading option:
/a AMSAT format (default)
/n NASA format
Update option:
/f merging new and old data (default)
/u update only satellites being in the data base
/s keep only satellites being in the input file
Delete option:
/dxxx delete data older than xxx days
(default 100 days)
<<768 satellites maximum>>
-------
Also follows the script I'm using on LinFBB, for help purposes:
echo
echo "--- Running maintenance"
echo
# lines for satgoc and satupdat
if [ -f $FBBDIR/sat/amsat.txt ]
then
cd $FBBDIR/sat
satdoc amsat.txt > satdoc.res
satdoc -i amsat.txt >> satdoc.res
satupdat amsat.txt /n /d60 > satupdat.res
satupdat amsat.txt /a /d60 >> satupdat.res
rm amsat.txt
cd $FBBDIR
fi
# End of process
However the game is played by a previos collecting of AMSAT
bulletins and by forwrding them to a file a then processed by
the aforementioned tools.
I hope to add an Euro cent on this review.
73,
Gus i0ojj

Check the files *.res & *.sat in fbb\system\sat directory, they need to be
updated at least by week ago. (When new ASMAT bulls coming and after
housekeeping is run)

There is part of my rubfbb.bat suggest to sattelites update procedure:
:maint ********************** START of MAINT script **************************
cd C:\FBB
@echo off
cd C:\FBB\system\sat
if not exist c:\fbb\system\sat\amsat.txt goto amsatend
echo NASA (2-line) format
satupdat amsat.txt /n /s /d60 > nasa.res
echo AMSAT format
satupdat amsat.txt /f /d60 > amsat.res
echo SATDOC updating
satdoc26 amsat.txt > satdoc.res
del amsat.txt
:amsatend
cls
echo
cd C:\FBB
Hope this info enough?
73, Sergej

Hi Sergej and Gus,
I try to run a "proper" BBS here however I am always open to suggestions.
What is considered proper in terms of satellites on a winfbb system My
input via the startup file is just running satupdat.exe, should I be doing
more.
By the way what is the recommended parameters for satupdat, I just use the
defaults...
Regards Tony
