Although gpredict has some very good satellite pass prediction functions, I have been missing a sky at a glance feature that can quickly show when the satellites will be up during the next X hours. After a few weeks of casual hacking, this feature is now ready for testing.

Finally, an evening without any significant QRN on 40! I was doing pretty well, working UA9O, UN9, 4L1, when suddenly there started to be a small pile-up on me.
