SSTV trasmissions continue by ISS !!!

SSTV transmissions continue.....

SSTV transmissions from the Russian Service module on the International Space Station started June 29 on 145.800 MHz FM and they are still continuing

There may well be further transmissions up until July 13 when the equipment being used for the SSTV will be required for a school contact.

collegue G7HCE in Exeter noted that some adjustments have been made by the cosmonauts and the images are now being sent uncropped. For the first week the edges of the pictures were missing.

Signing up to this site - what a business

Hi,

I am new to this ISS lark so it took me AGES to find the Station's packet callsign. This is totally unnecessary as you have a Captcha too.

Cheers

SSTV Image Question

In the recent SSTV activities I have an image with a somewhat small satellite on the left side upper corner. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what satellite that was? I thought maybe it was a ham radio satellite.
