Pass Details Format
The pass details are purely intended for use in cojunction with a program I wrote to plot antenna performance. The format may change without notice. At present, the format is a multi-column text file, with the following data:
Line 1 Date, satellite name
Lines 2-N Time as hhmmss.t, satellite azimuth, satellite elevation
The pass will always start at the minute boundary.
