The Mac Ham Satellite tracker since 1997...
MacDoppler will provide any level of station automation you need from assisted Doppler Tuning and Antenna Pointing right on up to fully automated Satellite Gateway operation. MacDoppler is a native macOS app.
MacDoppler is used around the world by Amateur Radio operators, satellite spotters, educators and commercial customers from CBS News to the International Space Station Amateur Radio Hardware Management program, Delta Telemetry Tracking and Control at Boeing Integrated Defense Systems, Florida State University, and the CalPoly CubeSat Project.

Dec 02, 2016 MacDoppler As our MacBook Air became available for the ham shack, I started to look seriously at MacDoppler and moving everything back to the Apple OS environment. We run Macs everywhere else in our home and in my business. Jun 20, 2019 MacDoppler will provide any level of station automation you need from assisted Doppler Tuning and Antenna Pointing right on up to fully automated Satellite Gateway operation. Among the changes and additions to MacDoppler are: Requires OS X 10.9+ macOS 10.14 (Mojave) compatible.
