I heard that ISS would be active with VHF SSTV today, so I queued a couple of observations to catch it. Didn’t try any decodes yet, but a few of them look pretty good. If anyone wants to have a go at decoding them, be my guest.
The event started yesterday and most of the observation were successful. My plan is to decode all the captured signals, upload the images to observations (for now uploading needs admin access) and make a quick report about this 2-day SSTV event.
For those interested to decode the image and use linux I suggest qsstv. The process is to download the ogg file and convert it to wav with a command like this:
After that you open qsstv and if I remember right you need to specify that your source will be a file. After that by pressing the play button you will prompt to select a file, find the generated wav and enjoy decoding!
PS Not sure why you are limited only in two links… I’ll check it if we can increase that number.
I just did the decoding from my phone, it couldn’t be easier. I started the satnogs audio recording from a chrome tab, then started the Robot36 app, waited for the decode, saved it and then posted it here!
I have been working on making my station do automatic decoding of some stuff like this. (Going to be just on a personal site till I can figure out how to upload code works.)
