Title: Decoding EasyPal (Zeeky's Attic 2245 UTC 30 April 2021)
Post by: B Dover on May 01, 2021, 1423 UTC: I get waterfall image.

Easypal. I only get 80 segments of 181 and decode fails (due to another station Pancho Villa? causing QRM). Any suggestions of getting a successful decode? Zekky's Attic has a nice signal on 6925 USB.

Post by: myteaquinn on May 02, 2021, 0140 UTC: B Dover I don't know what to tell you. Last night Zeeky had a great signal and if I remember correctly I had a solid green status bar for the image. I do live in the country where it is very quiet.

Post by: B Dover on May 02, 2021, 0234 UTC: EasyPal is old software. Are there any newer Digital SSTV software Rx available? I've searched the net, but, so far, no luck.

While the waterfall is very cool, perhaps more robust, reliable software for sending the images?
