Test images will be used during this period. This will provide near global coverage if all works well on 145.800 MHz FM.<\/p>\n<p>In the past images have been sent using the SSTV mode PD180, with a 3-minute off time between each image.<\/p>\n<p>All you need to receive SSTV pictures direct from the space station is to connect the audio output of a scanner or amateur radio transceiver via a simple interface to the soundcard on a Windows PC or an Apple iOS device, and tune in to 145.800 MHz FM. You can even receive pictures by holding an iPhone next to the radio loudspeaker.<\/p>\n<p>The ISS puts out a strong signal on 145.800 MHz FM and a 2m handheld with a 1\/4 wave antenna should be enough to receive it.<\/p>\n<p>Many FM rigs can be switched been wide and narrow deviation FM filters. For best results you should select the filter for wider 5 kHz deviation FM. Handhelds all seem to have a single wide filter fitted as standard.<\/p>\n<p>ARISS SSTV Blog <a href=\"http:\/\/ariss-sstv.blogspot.co.uk\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/ariss-sstv.blogspot.co.uk\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>ISS Slow Scan TV information with links to Apps and ISS tracking<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/amsat-uk.org\/beginners\/iss-sstv\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/amsat-uk.org\/beginners\/iss-sstv\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/pixel.wp.com\/b.gif?host=amsat-uk.org&#038;blog=41081109&#038;%23038;post=31879&#038;%23038;subd=ukamsat&#038;%23038;ref=&#038;%23038;feed=1\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 145.800 MHz FM Slow Scan Television (SSTV) transmissions from the International Space Station on December 5-6 should be receivable by radio amateurs around the world.
