George,When I read your post this morning, I couldn't wait to reply. We are so glad that you are enjoying our SSTV Events. As you know these have become very popular within the ham community. We always welcome comments from all who take to write to us at amsat-bb and our facebook page at Amateur Radio On The International Space (ARISS). I'm was especially impressed that you shared this event with another ham. George, you really get it! We love to see this and that's what it's all about.   All the Best in the New Year and please stay in touch, Dave, AA4KNARISS PR On Friday, January 1, 2021, 11:30:02 PM EST, W3AB/GEO via AMSAT-BB amsat-bb@amsat.org wrote:

I always enjoy the ARISS SSTV events. Sometimes I am able to participate, other times I'm not. Life is what it is.

However, this time I was and have many images. And many dups I assume. But, I was able to get another ham who had never experienced sat comms or SSTV before to participate. With a dual band vertical & IC-706 he was able to experience the ARISS SSTV downloads.

Many thanks to the team that made this event possible.

I love ham radio.
