Downloaded MMSTV to prepare for iss . I do not see pd 120 listed as a mode. Is the the correct software to use?
My set up is satpc32 controlling ft817 and ic7100 for No. 2 radio and g5500 rotor.
will I be able to run sat32 for tracking and also sstv for the picture? I presume yes.
Jim KI6WJ
For MMSSTV just set it to Auto and the software will pick pd120 once it picks up the signal. It's not one of the visible buttons, but the mode is in there and the software will decode it.
(Can't help you with the sat32 question. Sorry!)

Hello Jim,
I do use RX-SSTV, detects mode automatic and autocorrects slant images, besides adding mode and time at bottom of image. You can even start concurrently MMSTV to compare results.

I use robot36 on my phone. Get in the app store. I believe there are version for both droid & I phone (I'm droid) It's free. Just hold the phone next to the radio's speaker. Save it as soon as it finishes or it will overwrite. The signal is strong enough to work with an html and stock antenna. Doppler correction is really not needed. Good luck! 73Rick Tejera (K7TEJ)Saguaro Astronomy ClubWww.saguaroastro.orgThunderbird Astronomy ClubWww.w7tbc.org

Hi Rick!
Normally, the ISS SSTV signals are very easy to copy. So far, this is not the case with today's SSTV transmissions. For some reason, signals are much weaker than normal. A 20-degree pass in the past hour only yielded parts of two pictures for me, where normally that could be a pass with two complete pictures with little or no interference.
I have some higher passes later this afternoon and evening; maybe those will work better. If not, I'll try and see what I can get...

I think the 2m d/l antenna is in a different location and the signal isn't as good as it's been for awhile...

The pass earlier today that should have been good, was on for 15 seconds. They must be running it on a dummy load, or no external antenna.
