warning for some loud unpleasant noises!
i recently learned about SSTV, which is a way of sending images through audio. afaik it’s mostly used by ham radio operators, but i thought it had some potential for cool art effects so here’s a little test i did using robot36

Coming soon, another ISS SSTV series.
Get your SDRs, antennas, decoders ready.
The now usual Robot36 mode on 437.550 MHz.

All set up for the Fram2Ham polar orbit mission tentatively launching this evening. Robot36 SSTV transmissions are part of this mission.

Just got this static SSTV image from the space station via a handheld receiver and Robot36 app. See the original ariss-usa.org/ARISS_SSTV/

Managed to at least get a partial image from MORDOVIA-IOT (RS50S) on 477.093 MHz on the evening southerly pass east of Vancouver. Mode Robot36. Used a TV Yagi aimed south.

A basket of riches for SSTV afficionados.
Here's another one. From UmKA-1, one of the 70 cm satellites. Robot36 mode. More challenging but shorter duration image transmissions.

First attempt decoding SSTV from the ISS with an HT and the Robot36 app. #sstv #amsat #ariss #hamradio #amatuerradio

Pour la prochaine série #SSTV ARISS, non seulement ce sera en 70cm, mais en plus en Robot36 et non en PD120 !
Here's the latest on SSTV Series 31 from the ISS. This 5 day event will start April 10.
More details as we get closer to the start date.

Here is what I offer for my April Fools.
Volume warning (I am not even kidding!! Very high pitched repetitive sounds)
hint: robot36 is your friend

ISS SSTV: I would like to encourage anyone who hasn't tried yet, to "give it a go"! The minimum is something "to hear the signal" and something to "translate the sounds to images". You don't even need cables. Robot36 and "ACOUSTIC Coupling" (Put the device NEXT to the speaker) #ISS #SSTV #hamradio

Hello ArticSat1! Thanks for the photo! Received this morning with my Arrow Antenna, Tidradio H8, and Robot36 android app. Trying to collect all their octopus images. #hamradio #amateurradio #amsat

OK, this Robot36 SSTV image from ArcticSat-1 is at least recognisable - It is an octopus!
..in what looks like a Roman mosaic style.. but without the mosaic.

Captures from some of the numerous Russian cubesats transmitting SSTV in Robot36 mode. TV Yagi ($25) aimed south (no tracking). Vancouver.
