The VCH1 runs on Batteries:
The VCH1 Communicator is a microphone with a camera, that plugs into the Kenwood TM-D700 transceiver. The camera requires four (4) AA batteries.
Without batteries the camera will not run.
The VCH1 will consume a full set of 4-batteries in 4-8 hours..

I Stayed awake ( worked graveyard shift last nite ) listened and use HRD to track and Was using bad sat defs .. I changed the file used and updated that one And it matches my other tracking software. I showed ISS Due north of FN23 at 2011 UTC And will be Due south at 2148 UTC I heard nothing on the 2011 UTC Pass . Could they have stopped transmitting as it is getting darker outside here now?

What do you hear when you listen to it? SSTV is easily recognisable by ar.
