Instead of posting images all over the place, why not upload them to the ARISS
SSTV gallery page at http://www.amsat.com/ARISS_SSTV/submit.php and then
everybody can view them (after being reviewed) at
http://www.amsat.com/ARISS_SSTV/ .

N1JEZ sure sparked some interest when he put FP/N1JEZ on the air in July of
2000 giving out many Saint Pierre/Miquelon contacts. Beautiful card too with
an aerial shot in color of the QTH. I'm sure there's been other satellite
DXpeditions since that time during my period of inactivity on the sats.

It was my intent to encourage them. Just thought it would be nice to have them
in one convenient location. I see many have taken up the offer. Look at all
the images at http://www.amsat.com/ARISS_SSTV/index.php

Hi Folks,
For those of us the Apple machines, you can use Multimode from BlackCat
Systems:
http://www.blackcatsystems.com/software/multimodeOSX.html
I used it this afternoon to decode images from the AO-51 testing.
Unfortunatly I missed the messages about the ISS until it was too late
in Europe :-(
Have a great time catching the images.

Hi all:
It?s great to see the image coming down from ISS after all of these years of
hard work.
Lets not miss this opportunity to generate some good publicity out of these
types of amateur radio projects. The more good news stories the better for
everyone.
When MAREX put SSTV on Mir in 1998-1999, it generate great press for the
Russian space program. The liked seeing positive new stories about Mir for a
change. In fact they like it so much they asked for a New and improved
version, which is where SpaceCam1 came from.
So take your best shots and try to contact your local news media and see if
you can generate some good press for the amateur radio community.
Also send your best shots to the MAREX SpaceCam web page at:
Sstv(AT)issspacecam.org
73 and keep watching, SSTV that is.

Congratulations to the sstver's on ISS.
Ron Parise, WA4SIR and I EXCHANGED SSTV pics between 2 and 10 Dec
1990...on a COLUMBIA SAREX. QSL's to prove it..
Present users may be interested in my claim that I delivered the
first NEWSPAPER in space!
Dick Richard, KB5SIW and Ellen Baker, KA5SIX set a record in space on
Columbia 25 June to 9 July 1990, and the SAN DIEGO UNION NEWS
recorded the event on 2 July 1990....I got up at 0500 on 3 July, took
a picture of the paper article, and SSTV'ed it to COLUMBIA. And of
course have that QSL..
I don't know if NASA archived any of those transactions...
Go to:
http://home.san.rr.com/doguimont/uploads
Drill down and click on Unionews.zip and click on BWNEWS.JPG
Are they going to have any 2 way SSTV on this mission?? Does any on know??
I used an old ROBOT, of course, that was updated with all the
modes...Still have it!!

Hi Glen, K9STH
I am using a transverter Microwave Modules MMT 432/28 S to drive my
4CX250B linear amplifier.
If your original 10 watt linear amplifier board was missed I can send to
you the schematic diagram of it and a picture showing how the components
of it are placed over the PCB.
Into the transverter board you already have a 250 mW driver stage with a
2N6256 or a CTC CD 3649 or a BL524 depending on the year of production.
To duplicate the original power amplifier you need a 2N5944 a 2N5946 and
two pin diodes UM9401 plus a 5 volt regulator.
The rest of the circuit needs only few air trimmer capacitors of 5pF, 10pF
and 27pF .
The above power amplifier do not use a PCB with striplines but only 4 small
silver plated copper wire air wound coils for the inductances so that if you
are able to found the above active devices at a reasonable price you can use
your skill to build the amplifier by yourself.
It is even possible that someone reading on this BB particularly here in EU
hown an old and unused MMT 432/28 S transverter and send to you only the
aluminum box with the 10 watt power amplifier in it.
What say ?...........someone please !

I see hints on the postings that HRD or DM780 can do SSTV. I've hunted around
a bit and cant quite see any options like that though I see RTTY, PSK31 and
others. What am I missing here?

Has anybody in the western side of North America heard anything? I've had two

I was on for both of todays passes too and heard nothing.
Apparently the ISS crew is waiting until they're over the
east coast before they transmit.
To bad, I was looking forward to copying some pictures.

Thank you for the offer. I went ahead and ordered the 50 mW input and 30 watt
output kit from VK5EME. There has been a pretty good increase in the exchange
rate between the Australian dollar and the United States dollar in favor of
the United States dollar in the past few days.
The price of the complete kit (including the power module) including air mail
to the United States is $89.00 Au which is now $59.07 US. I decided not to
take a chance on the US dollar going back down in value! Of course it might
go up but $59 was a good price.
My 4CX250B 432 MHz amplifier is actually from an old Motorola 100 watt output
FM unit. It works great for CW and all that I have to do to use it for SSB is
to change the bias circuit. On 432 MHz operating CW it puts out an easy 150
watts and can do more if I increase the plate voltage.

I am using a transverter Microwave Modules MMT 432/28 S to drive my 4CX250B
linear amplifier. If your original 10 watt linear amplifier board was missed
I can send to you the schematic diagram of it and a picture showing how the
components of it are placed over the PCB. Into the transverter board you
already have a 250 mW driver stage with a 2N6256 or a CTC CD 3649 or a BL524
depending on the year of production. To duplicate the original power amplifier
you need a 2N5944 a 2N5946 and two pin diodes UM9401 plus a 5 volt
regulator. The rest of the circuit needs only few air trimmer capacitors of
5pF, 10pF and 27pF .
The above power amplifier do not use a PCB with striplines but only 4 small
silver plated copper wire air wound coils for the inductances so that if you
are able to found the above active devices at a reasonable price you can use
your skill to build the amplifier by yourself.
It is even possible that someone reading on this BB particularly here in EU
hown an old and unused MMT 432/28 S transverter and send to you only the
aluminum box with the 10 watt power amplifier in it.

Might be a good idea to record contacts on the Oscar Status page
A quick easy way to see what's active, and what's in-active
