Radio Totse 6925 USB 0748 UTC 5 Aug 2013
« on: August 05, 2013, 1513 UTC »
Heard some very faint music, followed by SSTV which started at 07:52:21 (in case anyone else wants to check their recordings for it). Good thing it was Scotty DX mode, or I wouldn't have decoded anything:



It looks like there were skips in the sound data. I don't know if that was on the transmitter site, or my side. Normally I can decode SSTV from SDR recordings without a problem.

I'm updating the station ID, since it was the same SSTV image as the Radio Totse transmission from the night before, I assume it was this station again.

That looks like ours for sure. I'm not sure if the sound skips are on our end or not.

EDIT: We were broadcasting at the time stated.

Recorder Catch on 6925USB

Very weak and fading up in the back end of the SSTV.  I was able to hear the SSTV termination tones, and it does sound like Scottie DX, but not much else.  Not as good as the previous night's recording.

Thanks Radio Totse!
