[digitalradio] Space Station Pictures

2009-05-30 Thread Trevor .

Some of the pictures of earth transmitted by the Amateur Radio Station onboard 
the International Space Station can be seen at: 

http://www.amsat.org/amsat/ariss/SSTV/ 

The pictures are sent using Slow Scan television (SSTV) on 145.800 MHz FM.

On that frequency you will may hear either the Astronauts talking to other 
Radio Amateurs on Earth (5 of the 6 Astronouts on ISS have Amateur radio 
licences) or AX.25 Packet, or SSTV pictures. 

Decoding software for SSTV using the a PC sound card is free, see

2009-05-30 Thread Fred VE3FAL
Gang:

 

We have PSK clubs like the 070 group, and fists/skcc for cw etc.

 

Are there any groups dedicated to RTTY?

 

I did a Google search but come up empty on clubs, but lots on contests.

 

Thanks

Don't know about clubs, but there is the 3905cc, a net, that is on 14.082 to 
14.084 Saturdays at 1400 cst.  I'm sure you can google it and find out more.  
The North American Traffic Net that is on 3905 at 10 pm cst nightly.  They were 
going to have a RTTY net also.  That can also be googled.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the 80 meter jt65A contact tonight. Most use 10.139 for jt65a but it 
is crowded with Winlink, Propnet and WSPR. For 17 I have seen both 18.102 and 
18.103 used.

73,
