Cygnus release. Below is the new schedule:

Test Setup and activation ? 15:25-16:25UTC
Dec 7, 2017
Test Power off ? 18:10-18:20 UTC

I followed Greg's suggestion and didn't experience any trouble with
HTTPS. AO-85 is now on my list. I'm on linux too and Gpredict version is
1.3.482-6bac (Manjaro distro). Thanks for your trick!

Yuri has asked that anyone who has not received
confirmations from this year and previous year's operations
to prepare logsheets so that he can mail them out when
he arrives in New Orleans. Marinetraffic.com anticipates a
15 or 16Dec arrival but get these to me now so that he has
time to get them ready for mailing. Instructions are at
papays.com/sat There are no changes from the original procedure.
The Seahorse is a relatively new ship and is wider than previous
vessels so it cannot go through the locks in the Great Lakes. So
he will be more restricted as to possible destinations than he
was last season. He has been very busy with his duties and has
had little time for anything else. He sends his regards to all.

John K8YSE

The text was a little too small to work with the SSTV resolution, but it
turned out OK considering. I'll play around a bit more and see if i can
make things more readable for Jambalaya or Pasole next week :)

Received 2 beautiful clear pictures (12/12 and 1/12) from ISS SSTV on a 62

Transmitting in the typical 3 min on / 3 min off schedule. Does anybody

Andreas, I thought it was 2 minutes on/off? The format is PD120 which is 120
seconds.
The first image I received started only a few seconds after AOS and was
surprisingly strong.

I believe they use an unmodified Kenwood D710E for SSTV and it can put
out up to 50 watts.
See this thread:
https://twitter.com/ARISS_status/status/883020516180840448
FWIW, up until the July 2017 event I believe it was always PD180.
Perhaps they will stay on PD120 going forward. I think I preferred the
higher resolution mode, but certainly PD120 makes it easier to get
more and more complete images.

Andreas, I thought it was 2 minutes on/off? The format is PD120 which is 120
seconds.
The first image I received started only a few seconds after AOS and was
surprisingly strong.

Received 2 beautiful clear pictures (12/12 and 1/12)? from ISS SSTV on a 62
degree pass over east coast Australia. Very strong signal .. never heard the
ISS that strong ?
Transmitting in the typical 3 min on / 3 min off schedule.? Does anybody
know if they issue certificates again on this SSTV cycle ?
Thanks,
Andreas - VK4TH
