[amsat-bb] Re: AO51 SSTV

[Greg D.]

Back in the dark days when I was running Windows 98se at home, MMSSTV was one of the best pieces of software around.  It probably still is, but I'm now running almost exclusively Linux, and I haven't been able to get it to run there.  Instead I have been using QSSTV, which works ok.

I have a simple switch-based patch panel that I use to interconnect the PC and the various rigs that I have in the shack.  I have the line-in and line-out going to the box, and all the rigs Tx and Rx outputs (where you'd hook them to a TNC, for example) going there too, and I pick which rig gets patched to the PC.  Nothing fancy, but it works.
