ARLS009 SSTV Transmissions Scheduled from ISS

Friday and Saturday, August 6 - 7, Russian cosmonauts onboard the 
International Space Station (ISS) will transmit slow-scan television 
(SSTV) images from the space station on 145.800 MHz FM. They will use 
SSTV mode PD-120. The transmissions are part of the Moscow Aviation 
Institute SSTV experiment (MAI-75) and will be sent via RS0ISS, the ham 
station in the Russian Zvezda (Service) module using a Kenwood TM-D710 
transceiver.

The announced schedule is August 6, 1050 - 1910 UTC and August 7, 0950 - 
1555 UTC. Dates and times are subject to change. For stations in the ISS 
footprint, the RS0ISS signal should be easy to copy on a handheld 
transceiver and a quarter-wave whip. Use 25-kHz channel spacing, if 
available. Free ISS software is available to download.

Pass predictions are available from AMSAT via,

events are available in the ARISS SSTV Gallery at:
