Title: Decoder sofware for SSTV and other digital modes
Post by: Rockpicker on January 08, 2013, 0516 UTC
I've just started looking into decoder software for various modes and have downloaded
some Freeware decoding software for CW & SSTV . (MMSTV)

I have various flavors of Windows & Linux to work with at home.

The Freeware SSTV  MMSSTV Ver 1.13A worked fine. Easy to setup and free.
I put a splitter in the on board sound card output then patched  one side to the mic input and one side to the speakers.
I setup MMSSTV then I played a recording of the Wolverine 12-25-2012 6925USB show and it worked first time!

For those of us on Linux, QSSTV works nice and is forgiving of drifty BFO's :)

Peace!

Yes, QSSTV works nicely in Linux, and it does tolerate a great deal of "slop" on tuning etc.

Previous to qsstv, I ran MMSSTV (Windows) in Linux Mint / Ununtu under the Wine program loader. It worked very well in Linux as well.

Ive downloaded the package for QSSTV 7.1.7 but have not loaded it yet.
Spent a lot of time playing with Fldigi with the Win Radio this weekend,
Works really well with the PSK, RTTY, and Olivia, also the best CW decoder I've tried so far.
I down loaded the Linux version of Fldigi as well. Checking out the various digital modes
fired up my imagination and is giving me some ideas I want to try ;D

Ditto on MMSSTV, I have a copy on the air machine, works well for TX as well as RX.

Blackcat Systems SSTV on iOS devices. Same dev has other iOS apps for psk31, packet, HF fax, navtex, and good old cw.
