All set for the first SONATE-2 pass for this weekend's SSTV event. Pass is rather low to the east for Metro Vancouver. Let's see if we can decode one, or both of the transmitted images at 2207 UTC.

Planning your next ARISS contact?

Affordable, Last-Minute Quality Gifts for the Field Radio Enthusiast in Your Life
I've received eight messages from people who would like to give a special ham radio person—their spouse, partner, parent, child, or friend—a gift but don't know what. I get these messages every year, and while I'm typically busy in December, I enjoy answering them because it means that I can take a gift decision in a significantly positive direction for someone.
