ISS transmitting SSTV today

[Analoguesat]

The space station is transmittimng SSTV pictures as a special event today. There are 3 good UK / north western Europe passes this afternoon and evening. The next pass is around 1515 UK summer time.

Usually its on 145.800MHz

I haven't got anything up for 2m at the moment, I could go out and put the Delta Quad up but it's raining!
Anyone with a SDR will be able to pick this up, you might need to use a virtual audio application to pipe the sound to another programme, MMSSTV will do the trick for decoding.

I shall have a go on the next pass which is in about 40 minutes

Not strong enough here could hear it but not enough to get a decode.
