UNID 6929 AM SSTV 0119z - 0127z 08-11-15

Left the recorder on last night parked on 6925 USB...at 01:19z someone started sending SSTV, but couldn't decode any of the images as they may have been a bit north of the frequency.  Sounded like 4 or 5 tx's & then QRT at 01:27z.

SDR recording catch. This was actually on 6929 AM:

0119 Scottie 2 SSTV transmission, aborted shortly after the start. Then a few more bad transmissions, followed by some better results:

Scottie 2:





Scottie 1:



The last image was sent at 0135z.

FYI Mr. SSTV op: The timing for all of these images off by a lot. A huge amount.
