HamTV Bulletin #13 April 14, 2014 Ham Video Commissioning completed
The final Ham Video Commissioning Pass was performed flawlessly Sunday April 13 at 18.23 UTC.
ISS Commander Koichi Wakata operated OR4ISS while ground stations G4KLB, F6DZP, IK1SLD and KI (Livorno) received the signals and streamed the video over the BATC server. The DATV signal was received for about 6 minutes.
Commander Wakata congratulated ARISS for this achievement and answered a series of questions, prepared in the manner of a school contact. He also proceeded to a microgravity experiment.
The recorded video of this historical transmission is available at: <http://www.vivadatv.org/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=317>http://www.vivadatv.org/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=317 and also on YouTube <http://youtu.be/EpFzbKvK1pk>http://youtu.be/EpFzbKvK1pk Congratulations to the Ham Video team for this outstanding performance. Next step should be a video enhanced ARISS school contact. We will keep you informed on any progress. 73, Gaston Bertels, ON4WF ARISS Europe chairman _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected].
