ARISS Joins NASA On-The-Air for a Special SSTV Event<\/h2>\n

Amateur Radio On The International Space Station (ARISS) is planning a very special Slow Scan Television (SSTV) event from about 1000 UT Saturday, Oct. 27 until 1930 UT Monday, Oct. 29 on 145.800 MHz FM using PD-120.<\/p>\n

Helping to support the event will be NASA\u2019s Space, Communication and Navigation (SCaN) Department.<\/p>\n

The Space Communications and Navigation (SCaN) program manages NASA\u2019s three most important communications networks: The Space Network (SN), Near Earth Network (NEN), and the Deep Space Network (DSN).<\/p>\n

Just as in past ARISS SSTV commemorations, twelve images will be downlinked, but this time with six featuring the SCaN educational activities while the other six images will commemorate major NASA anniversaries, ie., when NASA was established, astronauts first landing on the moon, etc.<\/p>\n

In addition to the fun of receiving these images, participants can qualify for a special endorsement for the NASA On The Air (NOTA) celebration event. To learn more about NOTA visit https:\/\/nasaontheair.wordpress.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Once received, images can be posted and viewed at
\nhttp:\/\/www.spaceflightsoftware.com\/ARISS_SSTV\/index.php<\/a><\/p>\n

The transmissions are expected to be broadcast at the usual frequency of 145.800 MHz using the PD-120 SSTV mode.<\/p>\n

Please note that the event is dependent on other activities, schedules and crew responsibilities on the ISS and are subject to change at any time.<\/p>\n

Note the ISS transmissions use the 5 kHz deviation FM standard rather than the narrow 2.5 kHz used in Europe. If your transceiver has selectable FM filters try using the wider filter. Handheld transceivers generally have a single wide filter fitted as standard and you should get good results outdoors using just a 1\/4 wave whip antenna.<\/p>\n
