I quit my job in March so I could work full time on Space Comms, and I
have some money saved up, but not enough to do this indefinitely. If
you have the means and desire, please sign up to send me a dollar or
more on my Patreon website every time I release a video so I can do
this indefinitely!

I have at least two more videos coming from the April 2016 ISS SSTV
event. New videos every Wednesday, so you can expect the next two ISS
SSTV videos to come over the next two weeks.

Tried this morning to listen for STMSat-1 on 437.00, but no signal received.
 Since we are a high school in Austin, TX, we were really cheering on the
STM school community.  And, as we know, the SSTV images are very popular. 
Hopeful that "something" will happen to get things to function properly, but
STM group should be proud of all their hard work.

Jeff,

Was CADRE transmitting at 9k6 or 19k2 ?   Also, was it "human readable"
or something that required decoder software ?

Please confirm on CADRE.  It should be at 437.485 MHz but we have NOT heard
it.  It would be amazing if you have heard it!

Note, MINXSS is at 437.345...

For locals by far the best option is to watch the event via the ATV
repeater downlink but setting up can be an issue.

So, the next best option is to view the Youtube Live Stream. This will
commence around 17:30 (local VK time) and continue until just after
the contact when we commence packing up.
This stream will be active well before 17:30 but there may not be any vision
Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVzvGHvEmsc

Next option would be to watch the contact via BATC to make it easier I
suggest that people open up the VK3RTV web page and select "VK3RTV1"
this is a very low bandwidth feed so it is quite lossy. Ok to watch on
a small screen but if you expand it up then it will be quite
pixelated.

(I believe the earlier Twitter reference to 437.000 was either speaking in

STMSat-1: 437.800.)

Hi Everyone,

We leave for Nova Scotia tomorrow morning.  I've put together the
following schedule of when I will be available.  You will note that I am
working through SO-50 only.  I may try to get on some AO-85 passes but
keep in mind I've had the radio for less than a week and am still
learning how to use it.

Anyway, this is what I have planned.  I don't know how to which passes I
will be on so I will simply tell you when my local AOS time is.  I hope
that's clear enough.  If there's a better way to describe them I'd be
happy if you let me know.

All times are UTC.

I'll do my best to stick to this schedule. Please note that some of
these times are the middle of the night or very early in the morning for
me and I am neither a night owl nor a "morning person". No flames please
if you don't hear me:-)

I will be very close to FN95 and FN96 and may use one or more of the
above passes to activate them.  We do have to drive in to Sydney to get
our groceries anyway!  Finally, I'm running 5 watts into an Arrow
146/437 handheld yagi.  I don't know how strong I'll be.  Keep your ears
open!
