I took the liberty of writing a quick and dirty guide to narrow band SSTV using MMSSTV. You can find the first draft at http://www.obriensweb.com/narrowsstv.htm . It is a little graphic rich, so it may take a little for the page to fully load. Hopefully the images display OK on the average PC

Leigh, I have not been following this SSTV discussion very closely as I got the impression that it was analog SSTV when MMSSTV was mentioned as a program. Or is this actually digital SSTV? Can you give us a capsule account? Do you have any knowledge of any tests that have been done between RF

I don't have a problem with various kinds of UI, but I do know some people care intensely. One of the things I hope to accomplish with the znudigi experiment is a separation of modem from UI. I amworking with several different UI designs for znudigi clients, and hoping that others will too. E

In the US, we can send images in 500Hz bandwidth in the cw/data segments of the band, but if the bandwidth is higher than 500Hz, we must move to the phone bands. Andy is trying to foster a set of image operations down in what works out to be in the US data segment, so if we want to play, we h

HI Leigh. That makes sense, but it would require Patrick to work with the GUI and he's not willing to do that, according to past comments. I think that would start a "domino effect" in the layout to remove clutter and I don't think he wants to get involved in that. Pity. Great program
