Here some pictures of the recent SSTV transmission from ISS. They are received using a cheap SDR stick and the NOAA antenna from WIMO under the roof abt. 7m above ground. Decoding is done using MMSSTV.

Santa brought me a new Synology Ds218+ NAS :-)

Logbook

Here a short description how I set up my RPi to send mail, usually sent to the users mbox to an SMTP server.

Some years ago I had wxtoimg running on a Windows machine and receiving NOAA images automatically with an analogue receiver.

According to node-red cookbook all files in the .node-red subdirectory should be backuped - except files in "node-modules" sub-directory:

As a logical follow on I opted for a separate Diplexer for my Arrow antenna. I've choosen the WIMO Diplexer #22030.

The HAM RADIO 2018 in Friedrichshafen brought me a new antenna - the Arrow Antennas 146/437-10BP - I plan to use it for SOTA work as well as for working some amateur radio satellites.

Here you find a list of all my SOTA activations

I've made a simple cheat sheet for my HamGadgets Ultra Picokeyer because it is hard to remember the various key sequences and abbreviations in the menu mode :-)

 Our second SOTA activation for 2018 is done. Monika (DL6SCF) and I activated the "Michelsberg" DM/BW-855. Beautiful weather - very sunny but not too warm. The CONDX where horrible. Deep QSB from S0 up to S9 from Spain und into the UK - very frustrating.
