Surprising, especially with a cargo mission heading its way to the ISS this week. BUT ...
Russian cosmonauts are expected to activate Slow Scan Television (SSTV) image transmissions on 145.800 MHz FM from the International Space Station on Wednesday to Friday, December 4, 5 and 6.
This is the schedule for the planned activation of the MAI-75 SSTV activity from the ISS.
• Dec 4: On - 12:00 GMT, Off - 16:50 GMT • Dec 5: On - 11:25 GMT, Off - 17:15 GMT • Dec 6: On - 10:20 GMT, Off - 16:40 GMT
Transmissions will be sent on 145.800 MHz FM in the SSTV mode PD-120. Once received, images can be posted and viewed by the public at http://www.spaceflightsoftware.com/ARISS_SSTV/index.php
ISS SSTV uses a Kenwood TM D710E transceiver which is part of the amateur radio station located in the Russian ISS Service Module.
Please note that SSTV events are dependent on other activities, schedules and crew responsibilities on the ISS and subject to change at any time. You can check for updates regarding planned operation at: ISS Ham https://twitter.com/RF2Space

It looks like all of their operational windows will have NO PASSES visible in the USA (or at least not in central USA).
Did I miss something, or is it just bad luck?
In any case, have fun, 73 N0AN Hasan

MAI-75 is part of an experiment conducted by the Moscow Aviation Institute (MAI). As such, it concentrates on Russian passes and is seldom available over North America. Fortunately, this leaves open time for ARISS activity. For this session, the 17:15 UTC cutoff on Dec. 5 is critical because Council Rock HS South in Holland PA has an ARISS contact 40 minutes later. This should be audible over much of the eastern US. The school plans to stream the contact at https://www.facebook.com/pg/crsouthradio/posts/?ref=page_internal https://www.facebook.com/pg/crsouthradio/posts/?ref=page_internal
