[amsat-bb] ISS SSTV now active

[Greg D]

Same on the 18:45z pass here in California CM98 (except for the rain, 
unfortunately).  I've never received a clearer SSTV picture from 
anywhere, let alone outer space!  Using a Yaesu FT-847 and MMSSTV 
software running under Wine on my OpenSuSE Linux box.

Picture 2 of 12 copied whole, and the first quarter of picture 3 was 
clear down to 45 seconds before LOS.
