No pictures on 2235 pass of ISS over EM79. Guess the party is over for now.
Got a couple of good ones earlier this weekend, though. Looking forward to
next time!

I guess they kept to schedule (once they finally got started! because
they missed three UK passes Saturday). It was supposed to stop at
21:30 UTC today:
http://amsat-uk.org/2015/03/31/iss-sstv/
"Continuous operation, using the call sign RS0ISS, is expected to
start at 1000 UT on Saturday, April 11 and continue until 2130 UT on
Sunday, April 12."
ISS Fan Club had a few voice reports in between SSTV transmissions,
with a youtube link to prove it. My last pass on the US East coast, at
2100 UTC, I put the antenna down in between transmissions! I sure hope
I didn't miss a great opportunity! Reports were from the UK and Russia
though.
It was very fun though, here are the images I got:

I got a half decent download using my Samsung tablet next to the radio's
speaker. Antenna was a silliness 2m/70cm. I made a voice contact with the
ISS in the past, using that very same antenna, both passes were low to the
horizon.

Folks,
I answer QSLs for my rover ops when I can, but everyone gets a card
eventually. Generally it takes me a month or two. Harassing and threatening
me by email doesn't help at all.

TAPR/AMSAT Joint Hamvention Banquet
Join us at the Dayton Hamvention this year for the?TAPR/AMSAT Banquet on
Friday evening, 15 May. Doors open at 1830 for a cash bar, with buffet
dinner served at 1900.?
This year's after dinner address will be:
"Adventures of a Hacker Turned Ham"
By Michael Ossmann, AD0NR
Michael Ossmann, AD0NR, grew up as a computer nerd embracing the hacker
ethos.? Eventually Michael became very interested in the security of
wireless systems such as remote keyless entry, garage door openers, Wi-Fi,
and Bluetooth.? He designed Ubertooth One, a Bluetooth sniffer that was
successfully funded on Kickstarter.? Not one to rest, Michael later designed
and successfully funded HackRF One, an open source SDR platform that
attracted the attention of the amateur radio community. Michael will talk
about his unique perspective on the community as an outsider looking in, why
he resisted getting a license for years, and why he finally decided to
join.? Michael will also share his thoughts on what it means to be a hacker,
what it means to be a ham, and what amateur radio may look like in the
decades to come.
The dinner will be held at:
Jefferson Room
The Kohler Presidential Banquet Center
4548 Presidential Way
Kettering, OH 45429
Reservations?must?be made in advance here. ?Tickets will not be sold at
Dayton. ?Tickets purchased online may be picked up at the AMSAT booth

oh boy.... i cannot tell you how many stations i have sent cards to over
the past 25 years and have never received a card back. and a demand that
if you don't send a card or reply to my email i am going public. really?
one station in particular is a foreign country. sent a card with irc, no
reply. sent a card with irc and $1 and no reply. sent a card with irc
and $5 and no reply. had someone going to iceland knock on his door and
ask for a card, no he said. gave up with iceland on satellite. of
course, that was back in ao-13/ao-40 days.
then there was a stateside station. sent me a qsl request but no
envelope. this was before lotw. he bashed me on the bb saying that i was
the most discourteous amsat member because this was the most cost
effective way to exchange cards. he sends a card and pays postage to me
and then i pay the postage back to him. that would be great if i needed
another card from his state (which i don't). therefore, the most cost
effective way for him to exchange cards was to cost me money.
now with lotw, i don't chase paper cards that much. well, don't chase
any cards that much except hf honor roll... 7 more.

Threatening public humiliation over QSL Cards is pretty low for any
radio ham, Like you Drew all cards get responded too but it takes time
even if they are direct anything between 1-5 months, if its via the
bureau it could take many years.
Guess thats the bonus of LoTW its much quicker :-)

Of course, there is the possibility that something got lost in the
post. It happens all the time. I often have magazines go missing, so
I contact the publisher and arrange for a replacement to be sent, if
it's still available.
Also, postal services sometimes mis-route items, so I imagine that
some of my QSLs or the ones from the other stations, might have,
somehow, ended up in Lower Slobbovia or Coleslawvania.

I'm not the most patient person, so I have sent the occasional email
about QSL cards. Always courteous and in search of a solution to get
the card (especially when it's one of the last few for an award). I
certainly have never threatened to out a non-QSLer.
I'm sometimes slow getting my QSLs and other mail out, but they will
go out if you request it. If you send me a nice email, that will
expedite it. If you send me an email threatening to out me publicly,
you'll probably never get one.
The great thing about LoTW is that it takes one upload to QSL everyone
you work in a certain location. There should never be a time when just
a "few" of those that work someone in a certain location get their
LoTW confirmations.

I can see both sides of the issue. One side wants the card as quickly as
possible and the other side sees themselves providing a service for free
so just be happy it's getting done.
One quick thought that would help both sides: don't volunteer to answer
QSL cards if you know you can't get them out in a timely manner. It
saves the volunteer from being rushed and constantly bothered to do
something for which they're not being paid and it saves the receiver of
the card the nervousness and impatience of not getting a card as soon as
they can.
We have this same problem in a charity with which I volunteer. We
sometimes have people who want to take on a project, but don't really
have the time to give it their best effort. The result is everyone
getting frustrated and in the end, the project suffers or is abandoned
altogether. Everyone's intentions are good, but sometimes the time just
isn't there and that's completely understandable.
