My 6 year old daughter loves it when the ISS is sending images. We set an alarm and both run in to the shack to see the images come down. I even sent away for the ARISS certificate for receiving images and put her name on it. She was SO pumped about it. Even took it to daycare to show the other kids.
I am a HAM in Canada, VE3SPP, hello. I have had fantastic success connecting to ISS. To get the station as it passes your best result is with a horizontal antenna. Better yet with 2 horizontal elements, one oriented north to south, and the other, east to west. This will cover your whole sky. I was told this by a ham and it works. My adaptation was to use a pair of trucker's CB whips into a Y to a single line into the station. The 1/4 wave CB whip is very close to a 5/8 wave of 2meter band where those pictures are transmitted. Loved this video, totally. 73s
I got the same picture as you using a baofeng and a iPhone using the SSTV app, I tried on laptop and rtl-sdr but I think my bandwidth was wrong as it didn’t get much of a picture it was also a noolec retractable antenna, love the vids man good stuff! Going for my licence soon. Such an awesome hobby!
Hi Hayden, I’ve found that a simple pvc pipe and coax QFH antenna worked brilliant for me for a good while… It eventually got damaged in a storm and I haven’t built a new one, but I would definitely recommend for circular polarisation. De Dave (EI5IMB).
That was interesting, watching the effect as the station passes through the squashed-doughnut radiation pattern of your co-linear - the signal getting _stronger_ as it approaches the horizon is unusual :D. I've had some success with a horizontal dipole/SDR and the ISS before (elements perpendicular to the track of the station), but the radio environment around my house is pretty noisy (I live in a suburb, so there are microwaves and inverters and SMPSes all over the spectrum). When the next ARISS event occurs at a time when I can be mobile (i.e. not during a workday), I'll try taking a rig out into the farmland east of my QTH and see if I can get a clearer signal, I think.
Good video, thanks! I was able to download pics from the ISS from an online SDR to my phone. There was some green banding like yours but I was lucky in that they sent the same pic of the Russian astronauts a few times and I was able to merge them together in Photoshop and have a really nice souvenir from the ISS.
Holy cow, I hopped on the Internet and caught you playing with your dongle on UA-cam! All right then, I'm going to have to try SSTV from ISS as well! Thank you for making another video and sharing it with all of us. I am of course subscribed with notifications turned on and thumbs up! 73 W3GUY
Haha Ernest, the things you find on UA-cam! Thank you for the support and watching. This SSTV event lasts until the end of the week, but I'm sure there will be more!
When using my RTL SDR Dongle it was getting so hot, so I pulled it apart and drilled some holes in the casing witch helped a lot to cool it down. Now it's not so hot.
I got 2 handheld ham radios no licence but i like to listen now i got rtl sdr v4 and i love it i wanted to buy some realy good reciever but everything is ower 1k to 5k $
The satellite sound is beautiful man I cant describe how much I like it. Also, the video is fantastic. Your microphone, The sdr and the obs setup are phenomenal.
I tried to receive signal when they pass over but the only thing I hear is the Beacon I guess it’s not active I tried it with both sdr and my portable radio
Great video, I'm also trying the same tonight with my RTL and a LNA, also have the same problem with interference from local pager towers decreasing the signal.
I've successfully received several images with several different devices. I've used a baofeng and a phone recording the signal. I tried my upgraded HT antenna, to no avail. More recently, I've used a TYT and my tablet recording the signal. This along with a magmount antenna on a baking sheet netted me 3 almost perfect images from a single pass. I also managed to get a QSL card from this! I also now have an HT that can record directly from the RF, I have yet to try that. I'm planning on trying the same thing here, I know it won't be as good as my mag Mount that I can change the angle and direction of, but it's worth a shot. Great video as always Hayden, 73 de W8IJC.
Thanks Andrew, that’s awesome! I was amazed actually how strong the signal was. I think with a better antenna (and location even - maybe portable) I’d get some really good pictures. Had fun, these were the first SSTV pictures I received in over 10 years. I did SSTV when I first got into the hobby. Still just as fun 👍 thanks for watching
@@HamRadioDX For sure, the ISS's SSTV radio is using fairly high power for a typical satellite, 25w if memory serves. I've found that at those power levels, when I had a functioning yagi antenna I didn't really even have to aim it, and it was less hassle to just use the vertical on a baking sheet that I could change the angle of. I received three almost perfect pictures in the cold dead of winter, while holding an ht, my large tablet, and a weird looking antenna that caused people to slow down when driving past the field that was in. But it was 100% worth it!! If you're going portable, I'd suggest any recording app you can find, and for satellite tracking I'd use Heavens Above (on Android). Also if you're using the HT to smart device record option, obviously minimize any background noise that you can. I would actually record the files rather than decoding them in real time, because once you have the file, you can clean it up and decode it using multiple different programs for the best possible image. Hope this helps!
My RTL-SDR was tied up, but I just used an audio cable and routed the audio from my radio to my laptop. Still worked great. Thanks for the great idea! :) I might buy another RTL-SDR, thanks Hayden!
@@HamRadioDX I got a few decent pics on two separate passes. Surprised it worked so well with an Arrow jpole. I wish there was at least one satellite that was always transmitting SSTV. I bet you would get a lot of non-hams interested.
I just tried this last night actually after listening to the WIA news service I missed over the weekend. I had a quick chat on the local repeater and they told me to use the same software but set to Auto. I was able to hook up my old PCR1000 with a mic cable to the computer and bang, away she went. Wow that was easy. I tried following the recommended frequency on the Amsat satellite tracker which put the number at xxx.820 and I was trying to follow the doppler shift on the way through. It would of been easier to just set it to xxx.800 and just listen but I didn't have a direct overhead pass into Perth. I'm just using a discone antenna at just above roof height. Do these passes need to be logged anywhere? I'm going to try and leave it running for an extended period and see if it will pick up anymore.

Heeeeeiiii it's possible to see the tv remote control?? And what frequency or configuration is necessary. I've tried looking for it few times... .... PLS some Answer and THANX in advance!!
Been trying since last night to get something other than just NOAA radio and regular AM/FM stations working. All attempts to get ISS or any weather satellite to appear signal wise have failed. I'm new to all this, bought the RTL-SDR V3 with the dipole antenna. I'm at the point of giving up on trying to get an image from orbit, I don't think I'm actually ready for this hobby after all.
Keep trying. The ISS was off the air for a space walk recently, and they aren’t transmitting SSTV pictures at the moment. For the current status on active frequencies onboard the ISS check this out here - www.ariss.org/current-status-of-iss-stations.html
Thanks for the video!!! I'm looking forward to try it. Just a question (sorry, I'm a beginner and I know nothing): any antenna recommendations? (Big one is impossible for me as I live in a flat, so I can't install a big antenna on the roof. If you could share some link it works be great). Thanks again!!!
A magnetic base mobile antenna might work, perhaps you can put it on a balcony? Similar you could maybe build what they call a flowerpot antenna, Google, pretty easy to put together but really anything you can manage
Hi Hayden, how would you go with a coax switch to say a 1/4 wave ground plan to offer an alternative lobe pattern when the satellite is overhead. Cheers
@@OzzieKev I figured it out about a week ago, using a crappy 2 bay 150 Mhz folded dipole and pics are mostly noise, I get better reception on the h.f. band doing wefax. Thanks
Hey @HamRadioDX, I am a newbie so please excuse me for asking this. My question is - how long is the coaxial cable running from your terrace/antenna to your studio where you have your RTL-SDR plugged in. Also if you could tell the Ohm of the cable...is it 50 or 75 Ohms.
@@HamRadioDX Thanks for your reply - very kind of you. I am in the process of setting everything up...ordered SDR dongle, made a rudimentary v-dipole antenna and installed required software's. Waiting for SDR to be delivered. In the meantime, I would like to install the antenna but the distance from my terrace to my studio/room where I would be connecting the coax cable to the SDR is roughly 40-50 meters. I know, that's a lot of distance and will definitely weaken the signal strength as it would be traveling such a distance. Is there a piece of hardware which I can connect at maybe mid-point of coax cable so the signals does not fade off by the time it reaches my SDR? Or do you suggest me buying one of those NooElec NESDR Extended Tuning Range extender? Please suggest or point me to some online articles where I can find the answers - I have several questions and queries on my mind.
Pop a preamplifier at the antenna, this will offset for a lot of the loss of your cable. Mount it in a waterproof box as close to the antenna as possible in the coax line
I have actually heard this signal at 145.800 on my SDR very loud and clear, but I never knew what ir actually was. Never even thought it might be from the ISS or sending Image data, I only really thought "Hmm that's an interesting signal" But it was very intermittent and choppy, and it disappeared and reappeared. I became disinterested in it because I did not know what it was. All I knew was it was some kind of Computer Data being sent. I did think it was strange that it was on 145.800 because nothing is on that frequency, but this is interesting. I had hoped they would send a picture of the earth from the ISS though, not these onboard images I am seeing now that I am trying your trick here. THey are kind of generic and all over the internet and they send the same ones over and over again. It's cool, but not really useful. I wish more people would transmit the images like this other than ISS on different frequencies. I wonder if it would be legal to hit up Klink Repeater and transmit some images across the world or not. Doesn't really say that we can't use it for that in the FCC Licensing material. We can use it to transmit computerized and telecommunicative data. So IDK.. Not as cool as receiving signals from space, but still cool.
The 7300 doesn’t do 2m where the ISS is transmitting the SSTV. I do have a 9700 which I listened to it yesterday, but I thought a simple RTL SDR dongle would be more fun
