Operator in the Pacific Northwest. Just getting started with HF digital and satellites.

Today at Vetco I found a nice copy of this book that went missing from my bookshelf a couple of decades ago.

This is the book I used to learn programming. Quickly followed by K&R. I’m stoked to have a copy again.

Yeah, holding my Baofeng with the rubber duck antenna up to my phone gave me better results than a RTL-SDR with a horizontal v-dipole.
Taking a break and I look at my house and think two things. First, I need to clean off the moss before it takes over. Second, I don’t subscribe to satellite TV, that dish was left behind by the previous homeowner. I should take it down and put a 2m/70cm eggbeater combo for more satellite work.
HBD!

Thank you @ARISS_Intl for another fun ISS SSTV event. This was my best reception. I hope for more events in the future.

With maybe one more or less image in the rotation so we don’t keep getting the same ones during each pass.

Sometimes it’s worth waking up at midnight and standing in the rain. But only sometimes.

My other decent image decoded from the ISS broadcasts last night. I bet getting an EggNogs from @electronics will improve my reception.
My best capture from the ISS passes last night.
