Hi all,
can anyone explain how to setup the priorities_NNN.txt file for scheduling only certain modes or sats ?
The priorities_37.txt example files reported in:
is not that clear to me:
awk ‘{if ($3>=80) print $0 }’ ${TRM_FILE} | grep -e “FSK” | awk ‘{printf("%s 1.0 %s\n",$1,$2)}’ > ${PRIO_FILE}
this lines are probably for filtering modes… but then there is a:
sort -n -k 4 ${TRM_FILE} | grep -e “DUV” | awk ‘{printf("%s 1.0 %s\n",$1,$2)}’ >> ${PRIO_FILE}
what is that for ? why here we are referencing another mode (DUV) ???
A couple of examples for scheduling only one sat (eg: ISS) or all sats using one mode (eg: CW) will be appreciated…
thanks
Giampaolo
I’d recommend making your own script using priorities.sh as a template.
Just search your transmitter file (/tmp/cache/transmitters_1099.txt) for the ISS’s NORAD ID 25544 for available transmitters for your station/antenna.
grep 25544 /tmp/cache/transmitters_2134.txt
25544 dPuSJJPpqqMuFTGNBLw77u 47 1033 2171 FSK
25544 eozSf5mKyzNxoascs8V4bV 54 5190 9564 FM

25544 yPvKr7jdJZLHsHukp8dDQF 2 101 3609 AFSK
For all CW satellites in all bands
STATION_ID=2134
TRM_FILE="/tmp/cache/transmitters_${STATION_ID}.txt"
PRIO_FILE="cw.txt"
awk '{if ($3>=10) print $0 }' ${TRM_FILE} | grep -e "CW" | awk '{printf("%s 1.0 %s\n",$1,$2)}' > ${PRIO_FILE}
then
./schedule_single_station.py -s 2134 -P ./cw.txt -M 1.0 -m 15 -d 1 -n -f

The scheduler is installed via the following methode.
Here a script that I use to schedule multiple satnogs stations via cron.
#!/usr/bin/env bash

if [ ! -z "${ID}" ]; then

Hi satcolintel5 and PE0SAT …
thanks a lot for the support... I'll try ASAP.

What are the third, fourth and fifth fields in the transmitters_xxx file? How should they be used?
Thanks
The third (if you start numbering from 1) is the id of the transmitter (a satellite can have multiple transmitters, so priorities are for transmitters, not for satellites).
Anything from the # onwards is ignored by the software so there is no fourth or fifth field. You can add anything here to help you remember what the line is about. In the example above, it is used to tell a human reading the priorities file which satellite the line belongs to (since humans often think in terms of satellites instead of transmitters).
