I think the 2m d/l antenna is in a different location and the signal isn't as good as it's been for awhile...

Hi Rick!
Normally, the ISS SSTV signals are very easy to copy. So far, this is not the case with today's SSTV transmissions. For some reason, signals are much weaker than normal. A 20-degree pass in the past hour only yielded parts of two pictures for me, where normally that could be a pass with two complete pictures with little or no interference.
I have some higher passes later this afternoon and evening; maybe those will work better. If not, I'll try and see what I can get...
73!

I use robot36 on my phone. Get in the app store. I believe there are version for both droid & I phone (I'm droid) It's free. Just hold the phone next to the radio's speaker. Save it as soon as it finishes or it will overwrite. The signal is strong enough to work with an html and stock antenna. Doppler correction is really not needed. Good luck! 73Rick Tejera (K7TEJ)Saguaro Astronomy ClubWww.saguaroastro.orgThunderbird Astronomy ClubWww.w7tbc.org
