Having Stellarium just update the TLEs would still mean that Stellarium would not be able to track the object. But lets face it, the interface of hand controllers bites, and actually finding the right satellite is awful, what you REALLY want to do is to click on the satellite in Stellarium. If Stellarium was able to push TLE data to the AutoStar/AudioStar in place of the obsolete AstroFinder software so the satellite TLEs were up-to-date that would be cool - then I could select a satellite in AudioStar and the mount would be able to track it using the latest TLE info.

The AstroFinder Software mentioned in the manual is obsolete and not provided by Meade anymore. From the LX65 manual:įrom my own experiments with Stellarium connected to the LX65 via Audiostar, I can select a satellite and CTRL+1 it, and the scope will slew the point the satellite WAS when I hit CTRL+1, but although Stellarium continues to track the satellite, it fails to continue to send repositioning commands to the scope.

Meade Audiostar on my LX65 can track satellites but of course the ephemeris data (the "Ephesians" mentioned?) are completely out of date and useless.
