[IRCNews] ISS SSTV Event

[David Spoelstra]

Get your 2m HTs ready for Aug 1 through Aug 4. There will be another
picture being transmitted from the ISS!

The event will be a world wide event running from August 1 through August 4
and will be a memorial event to honor Owen Garriott - W5LFL. He was the
first person to operate amateur radio from space. We owe much to his
efforts to bring the hobby to space for other operators.

Here is a schedule I did for all the passes over Indianapolis (using LOCAL
times):

Remember, all you need is:
2m HT set to 145.800 MHz (a better antenna than the stock one would help)
Smartphone with software set to PD120 mode:
-Android: Robot36
-iOS: Black Cat Systems entitled “SSTV Slow Scan TV”

Have fun!
