During development, I wanted a fake pass in my scheduler for an LRPT satellite. I grabbed the associated observation object from the network and then modified the start and end time. It's not perfect, but it works well enough to check for immediate gotchas.

You need to modify satnogs-client's tasks.py:

...

def status_listener():
    LOGGER.info('Starting scheduler...')
    SCHEDULER.start()
    SCHEDULER.remove_all_jobs()
    interval = settings.SATNOGS_NETWORK_API_QUERY_INTERVAL
    SCHEDULER.add_job(get_jobs, 'interval', minutes=interval)
    msg = 'Registering `get_jobs` periodic task ({0} min. interval)'.format(interval)
    LOGGER.info(msg)
    interval = settings.SATNOGS_NETWORK_API_POST_INTERVAL
    msg = 'Registering `post_data` periodic task ({0} min. interval)'.format(interval)
    LOGGER.info(msg)
    SCHEDULER.add_job(post_data, 'interval', minutes=interval)

    obj['start'] = (datetime.datetime.utcnow() + datetime.timedelta(seconds=30)).isoformat(timespec='seconds')
    obj['end'] = (datetime.datetime.utcnow() + datetime.timedelta(seconds=120)).isoformat(timespec='seconds')
    start = parser.parse(obj['start'])
    job_id = str(obj['id'])
    kwargs = {'obj': obj}
    SCHEDULER.add_job(spawn_observer,
                        'date',
                        run_date=start,
