Yea! New pictures, too.
Really strong signals here in CM98, but alas, the first picture started before the pass started, and the pass ended before the second was complete. But what was received in between was really nice.
Better pass coming up at 2232 local...

Wow, much better pass this time. Got #1/12, very clean.
My Linux PC is running QSSTV with a Yaesu 847 for receive, and GPredict to control the rotisserie on the roof. Doppler by hand for this pass, just keeping the discriminator centered.
