Default SSTV and WEFAX

Was trying to monitor SSTV with JVCOMM program hooked, via a
rigblaster, to an old pentium computer....about 8 yrs old using Windows
98. Received images were slanted so I asked one of the folks on the
band what was going on.

He said that you MUST use Windows XP operating system and IRFanview to
look at pix transmitted via SSTV.

This makes no sense. The transmitted picture is just a string of bits.
the Image doesn't know what I'm using. So any program set up for SSTV
should work.

Anyone any suggestions?

I am also using TRUETTY and SeatTTY to monitor wefax but, after
receiving 1 perfect image the rest have been slanted as well. Any
ideas?

Thanks all.


I agree, it is probably an adjustment to the program due to the sampling
rates of your sound card.

Go here and look for MMSSTV, a free program the will let you use the sound
card to do sstv. Nowhere near the problems the eariler programs had with
getting good images.
