[amsat-bb] ISS SSTV around 1710 UTC Saturday

[Patrick STODDARD (WD9EWK/VA7EWK)]

Hi!

During the last ISS pass over central Arizona at 1710 UTC, I
copied a part of one picture starting about 15 seconds after
AOS, followed by a clean and complete picture a couple of
minutes later. This was during a 9.5-degree pass over central
Arizona. Signal strength was more like I remember from past
SSTV events, even when the ISS elevation was below 1 degree.
A pass like this would have been impossible to hear yesterday.
You can see these pictures at:

Both were recorded by my TH-D74 with an Elk log periodic, and
then decoded using RX-SSTV on a Windows 7 laptop.

73!
