#IO81QK
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!

Yay! Christmas SSTV

SSTV Event Upcoming!

Just in time for the holidays and New Year, we're planning an SSTV event from December 25 to January 5. Celebrate with us with some great memories of ARISS 2024 in this series.

It all starts 1 week from today. Watch for updates as the start time gets close.

Thank-you @arissintl.bsky.social for this information.

Now we have the timings we can update our pass predictions for #IO81qk and schefule our Social Media alerts.
ARISS fans, we are GO for SSTV Series 32!

Transmissions will kick off on Friday May 8 around 10:30 UTC | 6:30 AM ET.

With the ARISS-USA.org domain currently off-line, we ask you hold your decodes and we'll announce when you can upload your images for certificates.

Brilliant @arissintl.bsky.social news, another SSTV event allowing the reception of images from the #ISS

Hopefully @sbarc.co.uk members such as @bigbernie.bsky.social @kingnerd1963.bsky.social and @g7kna.co.uk will pick up on this

Pass predictions for IO81QK to follow when we have more details
SSTV fans: stay tuned for mid-July activities!

It's an appropriate collaboration between ARISS Russia and USA as we celebrate the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project. Also, it's been 40 years since SSTV in human spaceflight, so we'll celebrate STS-51F as well.

SSTV Experiment UpcOming

ARISS (Amateur Radio on the International Space Station) have organised another SSTV Experiment from the ISS over the Christmas/New Year break. It looks like a lot of the passes over IO81qk (the GX4WAW Club House) are in the early morning.

Please look for @sbarc.co.uk on #BlueSky

They have re-posted @arissintl.bsky.social #SSTV and other #ISS related posts

They also have a web page showing pass predictions over the Club in #IO81QK for the activity periods over 3-6 October 2025 and the short activity period about a fortnight later

20:08 - 20:13
21:44 - 21:50

Marvellous, after the rigours of VHF Field Day we can relax with an #ISS #SSTV activity period

Keep an eye on the News Posts at www.sbarc.co.uk/news for our pass predictions over #IO81QK. RSS feed available

Great work by @arissintl.bsky.social to get this organised

Happy almost Easter!

More #SSTV from the #ISS

For our club members, and radio enthusiasts in or close to, IO81qk watch our website newsfeed (www/sbarc.co.uk pick NEWS from the menu) as we will publish our usual pass predictions and hopefully our usual social media alerts when the SSTV is active
This Saturday is the International Day of Human Space Flight, so we've called our ham radio SSTV event, "Humans in Space."

Start listening for transmissions on Friday 11-April around 17:00 UTC | 1:00 PM ET on 145.800 MHz.

The nice people at @arissintl.bsky.social very politely DM'd us to point out that we'd made a typo in our last post about likely pass times over #IO81QK

They are, of course, correct the dates should have been 14-07-2025 and 15-07-2025. The times, however, are, at least approximately, correct
This could be quite sane timings over #IO81QK @kingnerd1963.bsky.social @bigbernie.bsky.social @g7kna.co.uk

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.

We will rerun the pass predictions for the upcoming #SSTV activity scheduled for 03/10/25 - 06/10/25 to see if this reboost of the #ISS has also affected the passes over the #GX4WAW clubhouse in #IO81qk

Check our website for updates probably from 02/10/2025
