Slow Scan Television (SSTV) is making its way to the HAM-Radio-Apps. SSTV reception will first be introduced in the SDR-Control app for macOS and both iOS apps. Support for other platforms, including FlexRadio, YAESU, Kenwood, and Elecraft, will follow shortly thereafter. In a future update, SSTV transmission capabilities will also be added across all supported platforms.
SSTV remains an active and engaging mode in the amateur radio community, especially on 14.230 MHz. Additionally, through July 20, the International Space Station (ISS) is transmitting SSTV images on 145.800 MHz FM. These space-originated SSTV images are part of an ongoing initiative by ARISS. More details can be found at ARISS SSTV Events.
Stay tuned as HAM-Radio-Apps expands its feature set to include this popular and visually captivating mode.
