NAME

       moontracker - Calculate Az and El to the Moon

SYNOPSIS

        moontracker [ -a <port> ] [ -a1 <port> ] [ -q <site.qth> ]

DESCRIPTION

       MOONTRACKER is a small program providing capabilities for automatically
       aiming  an   antenna   array   towards   the   Moon   (for   Moonbounce
       communications).  The  location  of the observer is taken from the data
       files for predict(1).

       Once started, MoonTracker spawns itself as a background process.

OPTIONS

            -a serial port (/dev/ttyS0) -- sends data as it changes
            -a1 serial port (/dev/ttyS0) -- sends data at one-second intervals
            -q alternate qth file (site.qth)
