Hi everyone:
SpaceCam was activated for a few orbits Yesterday August 12. I posted a few pictures on the Marex web page.
Special thanks to:
M0ZLB Essex, United Kingdom Icom IC-706MkIIG MMSSTV Format Robot 36.
The down link was on 145.800 MHZ. There is NO uplink at this time.
I just received word that SpaceCam will also be activated around 1600 UTC on August 13, 2006. SSTV activity will be intermittent while the crew still perform other testing.
Good Luck and keep those images coming.
