Hi Doug,
?
Yes indeed I did get this - my apologies for not getting back to you sooner.?

The beep tone that you describe is one that indicates that one of the following is not set correctly: DATE/TIME/LOCATION. These are all needed to be accurate in order for a GOTO to work properly. The reason why is that the software in the AN/CAT system has 'knowledge' of the local horizon. This is only based on the alignment and critically the date/time/location. With this it will prevent a GOTO to an object that it believes to be below the horizon. This does not say that an alignment failed - you can indeed 'find' things - it only says that the computed local horizon is not what it is in reality and those settings will determine it. I'd guess that you changed something. Check these out and remember/note that the time is 24 hour format so if it is after 1PM local time the time will be 1300 or higher.?
I sent you a list of the beep tones as well.?
Gary?
