There have been a few teething issues that needed ironing out with the
SatNOGS project. An issue with the client software was proving a little
hard to track down but eventually resolved with ownership and ability to
ready from root owned files looked like it was the culprit. After a fresh
Jessie install was done on the Raspberry Pi and a rebuild of the new
software both the client and Kal worked (after a chmod & chown) . The only
thing left to do was schedule an observation without antennas to confirm it
would track.

Good News!

The rotator followed the ISS as hoped, so I happy to report the system is
ready for tidying up, the electronics being boxed up and it being sited at
the museum.
