Got my first SSTV image ever, but, what is it?

Hello folks, I have never done SSTV before, I left MMSTV running, and a few minutes ago, it all just sort of happened, all by itself. This is the first image I have ever received on SSTV. SSTV image received from ISS, Oct 22 18.42 hrs local time Melbourne Australia, Oct 22 7.42 hrs UTC. Orbit 56853 +57 minutes Frequency 145.800 Mhz FM. Image of MMSSTV console at, [img]http://www.vk3ukf.com/ISSsstv-01.gif[/img] 126kb As you can see, there is a bit of grain in the image, but the callsign is clearly visible. I have no idea what the image actually is of. Any

Anyone have audio from Sunday morning, Oct 19, west of Mississippi?

I just discovered this site today and have enjoyed listening to the audio posts.

I worked Richard Garriott on the ISS this past Sunday morning, at about 1532 UTC, while the station was over Western Canada.
I didn't think to set up something to record the QSO. Just wondering whether anyone might have audio from around that time. My QSO
was sandwiched between two VE7s, I think.

Thanks in advance for any help!

anyone have this recording?

Hi Everyone,

After trying over and over again over the years I have finally made my first contact with the ISS. It was sort of early in the morning here in Ottawa about 8:45 local or 12:45 UTC. Richard came back with my call, and I said a few excited words back. Wow, what a thrill! I'd like to know if anyone has a recording of that pass - I tried N0HIO's recording but it didn't have my contact. For those who heard the pass, I was a bit after the Navel Academy contact. Thanks to everyone involved for this amazing opportunity.

73,

Request for Richard Garriott

Hi all

Thanks to Richard for inceasing the frequency of images being sent using SSTV.

I have a request for a picture if someone can pass it on to Richard. How about a picture of the moon from the ISS? We are always seeing shots of the earth but I wonder what the stars look like from space and also perhaps what the moon looks like from the space station.

Regards Peter VK3Pb

Is it possible to work the ISS mobile?

Hello all,

Basically, my question is this: Do I stand a hope in hell without a directional antenna? Has anyone managed to work the ISS with a similar configuration?

Due to housing restrictions I cannot put up any antennas at home.

I can only work HF/VHF/UHF whilest mobile, which is at least better than nothing.

I have tried to make a few contacts with the ISS, especially recently as Richard is up there - I assume he'll chat on there more than the other crew, as he probably doesn't have such a scheduled day.

I try to work it by driving out to a wide open space, and lowering my omni-directional antenna to a horizontal position. (It's a 6/2/70 mobile antenna).

NA1SS Qsl Card.

I made contact with the ISS this morning. How do I go about getting a QSL card? Will they just send me one? Or do I need to send them one first?
