SSTV from the ISS

Post by MrWeetabix »

Russian ISS SSTV Event to Celebrate Cosmonautics Day. I've caught this late, but it's running until tomorrow night (14/04/18) 18:20 GMT.

Transmitted images will be from the Interkosmos project period of the Soviet space program
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interkosmos) and will be made on 145.800 MHz FM using the PD-120 SSTV mode (5 kHz deviation).
