Listen for SSTV signals to be downlinked at 145.800 MHz +/- Doppler shift. The mode of transmission is expected to be PD 120. These times will allow for one pass over the Eastern USA near the end of the scheduled times. Received images of reasonable quality can be posted at the ARISS SSTV Gallery at https://www.spaceflightsoftware.com/ARISS_SSTV/. Any future updates on this event will be posted here on our timeline and at our Twitter account at ARISS_status.

A few images from a couple passes over the UK yesterday. Hopefully I get the embedding imgur images correct

Captured with a mobile phone held to a baofeng handheld standing by the kitchen window ... it was p-ing down with rain, so didn't go outside. Might try for a couple of passes this afternoon / evening and see if I can get better images ... should be dry today.

30-Sep-2020 1st Pass c1640UTC

I have completely unsuccessful trying to get the ISS X-band repeater so far. Probably need a better set up than the stock antenna on HT, although I have got scheduled astronaut /school kids sessions and SSTV images with that in the past. Even tried a couple of local-ish websdrs without success, even with near overhead passes. Oh well patience is a virtue ...

and talking of SSTV not sure what coverage there will be (since it's the "Russian side") there is some SSTV scheduled for the next couple of days (from ariss-sstv.blogspot.com ) ...

I'm surprised that this hasn't made this forum yet. It's been out for 5 days. You people are slipping.

In the end I managed to get 4 images from various passes over the 2 days.
Probably not the best quality but I using a Baofeng held in one hand and a mobile phone to record the audio in the other while standing by a window. Then imported files to MMSSTV to decode.

I got images 1, 8, 10 and 12 of the set and they can be found at:

Being a bit further west than you I got picture 8/12 from this pass.

My first time trying to capture SSTV with a Baofang HT held next to computer mic so not the best quality capture but just about identifiable.

Hope for better luck with a bit of practice during today's passes over the UK. Will post capture(s) if I manage to get anything of reasonable quality.
