SSTV image tip

Did you know that the color of the callsign in the upper left of the image indicates which of the 4 cameras took the photo? [color=red]Reg[/color] callsign [-Y pointing camera, mirror reverses image]. [color=green]Green[/color] callsign is the top view [+Z pointing camera] and sometimes has the 2 meter antenna in view. [color=blue]Blue[/color] callsign is the bottom view [-Z pointing camera]. [color=magenta]Magenta[/color] callsign [+Y pointing camera, mirror reverses image].

ISS and ARISSat-1 passes

How long will the ARISSat-1 satellite be close to the ISS. Will the pass times always be the same ?

ARISSat-1 heard in San Diego

Heard female voice with deep fading. Not a high pass, so it was difficult copy. I'll try for the secret word on the next pass, which should be higher!

ARISAT-1 IS LIKE BORN DIED

It is unfortunate the way it was handled the micro satellite, we can say that being born died, now the only thing left is to be foolish in front of a TV screen just to see and hear can not interact with the satellite. Under which criterion chose these people to be up there is incredible but speaks very poorly of them.

Now we has to wait until next February! not credible!

ARISSat-1 RS01S

Howdy folks, heard the microsat this morning from N. Las Vegas and decoded the SSTV signal (0723 UTC, 53 degree ele,) from DM26kg. Some fading on the signal while holding and manipulating the antenna. And also heard the beacon from a young boy from India, saying, "Hello from space", but could make the full recording out. I was using a Yaesu VX-8r, arrow antenna, and recorded the telemetry on my iphone. I used MMSTV to decode the SSTV picture. 73's Jason

PS If I can figure out how to post the pic, I will.
