Yea Jerry I know the feeling. I did get a computer upgrade, thanks to my daughter buying herself an newer one and giving me her old 1.2 gig. I don't think that digital sstv is for me. I used to listen to the net during the week days on 7.173 and I could only get 10% of the pictures. I gave

To the Group: Since Andy brought up the subject of Digital SSTV here is a web page that will explain it better than I can. http://web.aanet.com.au/betula/digital.htm You will also have to have a program called Irfanview to view the pictures. Joe W4JSI Age is mind over matter If you don't mind

Yeah, Have not tried to copy "digital" SSTV for a long time. Got tired of fighting with all the RTTY signals in the PSK part of twenty meters this past weekend, so went up to 14.233 and tried using DigiTrx, didn't work. Guess they are now using HamPal now on "digital" SSTV. Two different formats

Hi Danny,   Yes they all work the same. The problems are that they use the RDFT and you either get the file that was transmitted or you don't. Then you have to have a graphics program to view the picture once it is received and decoded.  I don't really know if one is better than the other.

3 Choices are 2 too many for me.  There must be 50 here.  Which one works the best with the most?  Personally, I dont have time to download even half of these, and even less time to try them all out.  Do each of these work on the air with all the rest?  If not, its no wonder more people ar

Andy,   I have tried about all of the digital SSTV programs and Hampal is as good as any of them. Try this site for info and downloads: http://www.kiva.net/~djones/  A word of advice, It takes a fast computer to really work. I had a P2 at 400 MHz and it would take about 3 times the amount o

Satellite internet is not mission-critical reliable. It could be disasterously foolish to design a solitary dependency on such a non-redundant system, same as the prior foolishness of "we have cell phones, we don't need Ham radio". This is not to say that ill-informed decisionmakers brainwashed b

Double check that the audio from the Soudcard is correctly connected to input on your interface. Make sure the audio output level is satisfactory (and also make sure you do not set it too high). Make sure the received signal on digipan's waterfall (and thus the area you will be transmitting from)
