0528z: SSTV, Scottie 2 mode.  Partial copy, "Hello Mermaid" in red letters against blue background at bottom.

0533z: Same image as 0528z, better copy this time.  The red text is a little scrambled and loses saturation due to JPEG compression.

Here's a copy of the original image as sent by Eccentric Shortwave.  Note: This was received via e-mail, not SSTV received over the air.

0611z: Hmm... this looks awfully familiar.  Heavy intermittent local RFI wiped out part of it tho'.
