What are most AMSAT folks using for SSTV software? My objective is to TX and RX SSTV via AO-51 or ISS using a soundcard interface like the Rigblaster Nomic. BTW, enjoyed the VS mode this past week on AO-51. Thanks es 73, Ron, n6paa
I'm betting most use mmsstv http://mmhamsoft.amateur-radio.ca/mmsstv/
Also, I have a question:
Is any digital SSTV being done on the birds? The program for the digital SSTV is "Digtrx", http://www.kiva.net/~djones/digtrx.htm
The digital SSTV is based on a modification of "DRM", and I've used it on 20 meter SSB, but it should work on FM even better if you have a decent s/n ratio.

Back in the dark days when I was running Windows 98se at home, MMSSTV was one of the best pieces of software around. It probably still is, but I'm now running almost exclusively Linux, and I haven't been able to get it to run there. Instead I have been using QSSTV, which works ok.
I have a simple switch-based patch panel that I use to interconnect the PC and the various rigs that I have in the shack. I have the line-in and line-out going to the box, and all the rigs Tx and Rx outputs (where you'd hook them to a TNC, for example) going there too, and I pick which rig gets patched to the PC. Nothing fancy, but it works.

Either MMSSTV ot Ham Radio Deluxe, which will do full rig control, sat predix, logbook and all common digital modes.

I am using Ham Radio Deluxe for everything now days. Controls my FT-847 nicely. Not to say it is best at any one thing but sure covers about anything I could ever wont to do and then some. Pretty nice satellite tracking too.

FWIW I'm getting antennas up and will soon be improving the SSTV and SatTrack part of HRD.
Been busy - very, very busy writing HRD 5.0.

About the only thing I could hope for Xmas is a DDE for my Yaesu 5400 rotor control. I can wait. Uni-Trac wont do Vista and as I understand there is no support for my Uni-Trac box anymore. I still see them advertised in the Amsat paper. Hope folks check it out before they buy.
