The November WCARA meeting was a program on SSTV using MMSSTV software. This software was developed by Makoto Mori, JE3HHT, and is available as a free download. It is an extensive piece of software for transmitting and receiving color analog SSTV signals. Several of the attendees requested that information about the links to the software be posted on the web for easy reference. The software can be downloaded from the JE3HHT site at this link: http://hamsoft.ca/pages/mmsstv.php There are several sites that offer quick start and tutorial information for the software. This is the link to the JE3HHT quick start site: http://hamsoft.ca/pages/mmsstv/quick-start-graphics.php This link goes to W7SAV tutorial, which is 106 pages long, and is very inclusive of the software's details. http://www.w7sav.net/RadioShack_files/mmsstv.pdf Oh-Ky-In runs a MMSSTV net each Friday night at 7:30pm on their 146.925 repeater. This is a great opportunity to work with the software and be able to discuss its use with the net participants. Frequencies to watch are: Analog Frequencies 160m 1.916MHz Give it a try. It's an exciting and easy way to get operational on SSTV. It operates on low end machines, from Windows 98 on up. |
