#GPredict
Yay! more #SSTV from the #ISS

Now to determine how civilised the orbital pass times are over #IO81QK

Rumour is that @g7kna.co.uk is going to try using #GPredict with #GQRX to provide Doppler Shift to a #SDRPlay RSP 1A SDR which sounds like fun
SSTV Event Incoming!

ARISS SSTV Series 33 will feature images focused on student education, transmitted from the International Space Station October 2-6.

This special Expedition 75 SSTV event is just 9 days away. Get your SSTV software and decoders ready!

A couple on SO50 just now - it has been a while since it last came around and i was free to have a go.
3 weeks in fact.

My best one so far. A bit noisy, but works.
- Discone on 10 ft PVC pole in backyard
- Raspberry Pi 4 / RTL-SDR
- Gpredict and GQrx

#hamlib #gpredict

well that's progress, on my new Linux box, i have finally managed to get HamLib installed and working :)

GPredict can now control my FT991a for frequency and Doppler correction :)

images from last nights passes

finally managed to fix GPredict TLE downloads so it will update without manual download and install

celestrak don't seem to respond for me now? so managed to find www.amsat.org/tle/daily-bu...

Captured my first image from the latest event from the ISS. Running a Raspberry Pi4, Gpredict, GQrx, RTL_SDR to a discone antenna in the backyard.

Created a partition on the Windows machine and installed Ubuntu for no logical reason.
Mint didn't work, wish I'd went with vanilla Debian.
Ubuntu is too fancy for my taste.

I dont know what I'm doing and it probably won't work, but I put the vhf/uhf vertical back up and RS-44 was coming in with some strength on 70cm downlink.
So the duplexer has been pressed into service and now trying for my 1st linear satellite. 2 good passes coming up.
Perhaps I will hear myself👨‍🚀
August 30, 2025 at 10:45 AM
Right then - enough satellite playing!
I seem to have SO-50 fairly consistently now- workable passes, a couple each time- still deaf east tho. But i have been monitoring Gpredict for days now, and enough!
So perhaps just FT8 if i do radio today and a bit of cooking. A movie perhaps and gummie bears!

@arissintl.bsky.social Humans in space serie 26
Setup : SDR + QFH antenna + LNA + Gpredict + QSSTV
April 16, 2025 at 2:36 PM
Thank you to the @arissintl.bsky.social team for this event

There were 21 viable passes over #IO81qk, possibly a few more marginal low angle passes that we didn't list

One of our members reports having configured his #GPredict setup to correct the frequency on his #FT817 for Doppler Shift
ARISS Series 31 has one more pass to go, transmissions should wrap up around 13:55 UTC | 9:55 AM ET.

Don't forget to submit for your certificate. Upload at least one original decode to ariss-usa.org/ARISS_SSTV/ before late Friday to get in on the award.

My best captures from this SSTV event from the space station. Got most of them, but never saw the last ones.
Raspberry Pi, GQrx, Gpredict, RTL-SDR connected to a discone antenna.

#GPredict indicates that there is one further #ISS pass over my QTH this evening but it will be a very low angle so unlikely to be that successful

On the last pass at 1620 UTC I managed this decode, not as good as the previous 2 passes but still identifiable

Finger on the pulse, a trendsetter, the man that defines the news -Pete! whadda guy!

You know though, as a newbie, amazed it has taken so long for somebody to write something so there was more than SatPC and Gpredict... and that French one.
Hardly a crowded market given the 'scene'.

SSTV reception record - 4.

ARISS Series 26 SSTV Event
"Humans in Space"
11 - 16 Apr 2025.

Ant: Half wave mobile whip
Rig: Raspberry PI 5
Software: Gqrx SDR, Gpredict, QSSTV

If there is no QRM and the satellite passes are good, a good received image can be obtained.

I use Gpredict as a visual guide and just rotate the antenna to where i think it should be- I have learned over time to make it work... mostly.🤷‍♀️

We can enjoy SSTV images from the ISS for a while now. My first image from this series has arrived.
🙂
July 14, 2025 at 10:28 PM
Well then!
Firstly, nice to get a UT SSTV station while I was waiting... nicer still to get F5RRS as my first SSB satellite QSO through RS-44.

It worked!

Ft818 rx on the uhf vertical. 991a tx with 5 elements vhf.
Colour me surprised!
Erm...
Boom i guess.. tiny trophy for me!

We've been tracking #CUTE-1 🛰️ of @laspatcu.bsky.social & its journey in space.
It has now re-entered, & the last good observation was by station 3804 - DP0GVN-UHF, in Antarctica. 📡
Congratulations, CUTE-1 team! We're thrilled to have been part of this mission!

CUTE Satellite Re-Entry with a Decodable Goodbye Song
Updated CUTE TLE from SatNOGS DB and altitude is 151km and dropping and it looks like Gpredict broke because its not showing the satellite on the map anymore. Edit: now at 147km and dropping still.

My attempts at the SSTV event the last few days. Ran it automatically on the Raspberry pi using a discone antenna. Gpredict to track the ISS, then it automatically sets GQrx to receive and record as a .wav file. Then decode with QSSTV.
Most images were fragments but these 3 were the full ones.
