I have been using the MMSSTV software for some time to receive SSTV (I am not
interested in transmitting and just monitoring). I use the headphone jack and
get good pictures if the signals are strong enough. With all the MM software
you have to figure out how it works by trial and error (lots of trial and
plenty of error). The hardest thing is to correctly tune the signal. If you
tune the ham's voices correctly then the signal for the picture will be
correct. If you put the receive on Auto sometimes it correctly selects the
mode (Scottie 1, Scottie 2, etc.) and sometimes not. All the pictures I get
are slanted and I have to clean them up after they are received. I find it is
fun to play with for a hour or so once in awhile but soon becomes boring
(depending on the subject matter of the pictures).
Getting it to work correctly is a learning experience. Just a get a strong
signal tuned correctly and let it play.
