ARISS SSTV 
----------
The Russian ARISS team is intending to transmit SSTV from the ISS on May 13-14.

SSTV images will be transmitted while the ISS is in range of Moscow but may also 
be transmitted throughout a few orbits that pass over other parts of the world.

European stations should be in reach of the transmissions. Transmission times 
should be about 1200 UTC-1700 UTC each day. Transmission types will likely be 
Robot 36 on May 13 and Martin-1 on May 14

Listen on 145.800MHz. Radio amateurs are invited to archive received SSTV images 
on the ARISS SSTV Gallery at:

Good luck!

update:

13.5.2010:
Seems the DATA connector on the front of the D700 is not seating properly with 
the cable from the VC-H1. Crew heard talking to MCC-Moscow about the problem. 
Several reports of carrier with no modulation when ISS in range of Moscow but 
no successful reports of image transmissions.
Tomorrow the crew will switch to the SpaceCam computer based system and attempt 
to transmit Martin-1 images but the connector port on the radio could still 
present a problem even though that system uses a different cable. 

14.5.2010:
The images were sent in the Martin1 format and using the SpaceCam computer based 
system. Each of the images transmitted today were preloaded into a library and 
sent in a slide show sequence.
