--- SatTracker:
SatTracker has been added to eight more satellites:
Astra 1A/1B/1C/1D/1E/1F, Eutelsat II f1 and Hot Bird 1.
Links to SatTracker are available from the normal TV charts.

SatTracker on the Nordic satellite positions (5E and 1W) as
well as the Astra satellites and Eutelsat II f1/Hot Bird 1
have moved to separate pages, to save download time and to
not take too much space on the TV/radio charts.

To use and see SatTracker, you must have a Java compatible
browser.

Please note that the TSE (The Satellite Encyclopedia) links
are external and NOT a part of SATCO DX Satellite Chart.
(TSE is providing technical information for all satellites.)
