« on: December 22, 2022, 0021 UTC »

S9 with the PY2GN KiwiSDR in Brazil.

1713 UTC-SSTV images

It turns out the transmitter frequency was changing frequently in the middle of images and the image was only sent completely one time. I was only able to get a useable decode on the last image, which was sent in Scottie 1 mode. Many modes were used, including Robot 36, ML320, Martin 1, Scottie 1, and Scottie DX.
