Well, the answer to that question is to go to the PSRG website and look for the archived video of Kirk, AlphaGolf7YankeeMike's talk from about a month ago where he talked about SSTV and yeah 14.230 is, and I think there's a little bit of room above it too. That's considered the SSTV 20 meter single sideband calling frequency. So, yeah I just tuned my radio there and just listened and had the information come in. And so, yeah without getting into a whole big discussion about it here is, yeah I've got this specialized program that interfaces over Wi-Fi to my IC705, but there are programs out there that all, what it will do is it will let your phone listen for whatever is coming over the radio and if there is an SSTV signal it will just print out the image and you can just be holding your phone or a microphone connected to a computer just near a radio and the audio couples that way. So, there's so many ways to do it, but yeah I'd recommend going and checking out Kirk's education meeting presentation. So, it's very cool. KG70DB. KG70DB, K7WF, thank you Dean. You know I had missed that meeting and I meant to watch the video and I forgot all about it. So, thank you so much for reminding me that is going to give me the background I need. I really appreciate you bringing that up. Very good, thank you. Dean, oh Dean, you're probably next on the list. Jeff, that's who we want to talk to. Jeff, AB6MB. How's it going down there in California? This is repeater station Q and Q7 November, Quebec, November. All-star No. 2 C2-2 located in Shelton, Washington. I'm watching a ball player at the Dodgers' Mariners game and the second baseman for the Dodgers is trying to bunt the players over and it's just not working. He tries to bunt it and the ball goes every which way except for the way he wants it to go and so, man, I'm just frustrated. But anyway, yeah, just down here, just nice weather and the ball player is not having a good day. And that's Mick Rojas, a good, great guy. He's just so bad at not going well. Anyway, yeah, the game doesn't count for anything for both teams so it's just kind of, you know, do what you can there to get through it. But anyway, it's all that. He actually got the two players over. Anyway, I digress. Yeah, it's good to hear about the space station and doing the SOSCNT. I've done a little bit of that and just to say I did it. It's interesting to do and there's ads for your phone, you know, that you can do and listen. I think it's called Robot. Maybe Robot, it's Robot something. But yeah, I did that just to test it out and that. And the Dodgers, well anyway, I'm getting too distracted here. But anyway, thanks for doing that tonight and hope everybody has a good evening. AB6MB. AB6MB, K7WFD. Well, thanks. Thanks for the blow by blow report there on the game. That Dodgers batter should have known that the Mariners are invincible at this point, right? Looks that way for the moment. Really well. Interesting season and playoffs start. I forget, real soon. Yeah, on the, Jack sent me a little image here just so people will know a little better on this Space Week SSTV event. It's going to start, let's see, the first window starts Friday, Friday, 1400 UTC. So that's what, 7 a.m. Friday morning and goes through to 10,000 UTC Saturday. So that's the middle of the night. So it's basically Friday. Yeah, ends at 3 a.m. in the morning. And then the second window starts on Saturday with a similar schedule, kind of similar. Anyway, go Google it. It's coming down from the space station at 145.8 MHz. And it uses, it talks about the coding and that program that Jeff mentioned is robot, I think it's robot 36. That's Android. I don't know if the same thing is on iPhone, but I know there's one that works. And it just, you can just grab the audio recorder on your phone and play it back. I've done it with just like a J-Pole. No, I did it actually, you can hear it with just a 19 inch whip. I tried it that way. I didn't get much of an image. Then I tried it with a direction line panning and a pretty nice image. Anyway, it's fun if you've never done it. It's real hard. It's real difficult. All right, let's move ahead now and talk to KB5TWG. Tony, come in.
