So I hadn't seen this image yet:
https://www.reddit.com/r/amateurradio/comments/9s3bvh/iss_is_transmitting_s…
Clearly that is not the template. It was just a choice to make RS0ISS
larger. I believe it is the Russian equipment and these events don't happen
without them so it makes sense to me. I dont think all the images have
NA1SS in them but I'm pretty sure they all have RS0ISS in them.

I think the template uses whatever callsign is set in MMSSTV. The template
is huge.
Also I was told MMSSTV has five templates and when you load images to
transmit into it the first five get the templates and presumably the others
don't which is why some have the template and others don't.

I messed up sat 32.
I was trying to make the sstv program work. I realized that the downlink radio(ft 817) needed to be changed so that it could connect to mmstv.
I had this brilliant idea to change from config 1 on sat 32 to a new config 2 so that I could set up for sstv.
that caused a error "Error while loadingfile YAESUE11ParSemi.sqf"
I can not recover sat 32.
What do I do??
ThanksJim KI6WJ
Hi folks,
I let my radio and SSTV program run last night. Several passes, none
super high, so my expectations were low. Also the whole downlink
frequency thing. But, as I sift through the images and static of the
night, I see about a half dozen partial pictures! Yea!
But, three of them, two from the 12:35z pass, and one from the 14:11z
pass, have an overlay from MMSSTV calling "CQ SSTV"! Were they sent
down from the ISS this way, or was someone locally rebroadcasting them
(incorrectly)? The image from the 11:02z pass seemed fine, though I
only go a part of it ("Curiosity on Mars"), as was the 15:49z pass.
Next pass, a low one, beginning in 4 minutes at 17:27z... Fingers crossed.
