The SSTV app by Black Cat works okay on iPhone & iPad. It’s not great and I think it costs $3, but it works. There isn’t really anything else for Apple mobile. I much prefer using MMSSTV on a laptop, even though it is also a bit wonky.

I'm sure there are others, but I use Robot 36 for droid. Works great. Just put the phone near the speaker and let the decoding begin. Rick Tejera K7TEJSaguaroAstro@cox.net623-203-4121

Can someone post a nice concise summary of SSTV aps available for smart phones and tablets that would let people see the SSTV from the ISS this coming week with nothing more than an HT and a phone?
This can be the seed for all hams to have such an AP so that when they witness something and are beyond cell service, they can snap a pix, and send if via their HT o r mobile, and similarly receive such remote area images too over Ham radio.
The technology is here. Kenwood did the VCH1 Handheld SSTV system back in the 90's but it was hardware specific and before its time. Now, EVERYONE has the SSTV processing power in their pocket to make ham radio imaging possible anytime anywhere. Let's start practicing our ability to use it. Bob, WB4APR

ARISS Russia is planning a special Slow Scan Television (SSTV) event from the ISS in celebration of Cosmonautics Day. Transmissions begin April 11 at 11:30 UTC through April 14 at 18:20 UTC on 145.800 MHz using the PD-120 SSTV mode.
A Russian computer on the ISS, stores images that are then transmitted to Earth using the onboard Kenwood TM-D710E transceiver. Images will be from the Interkosmos project period of the Soviet space program (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interkosmos).
Images received can be posted and viewed at http://www.spaceflightsoftware.com/ARISS_SSTV/index.php . _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
