Relaying NASA TV on Amateur TV Repeater
Hi..
Anyone know whether relaying NASA TV through an ATV repeater is allowed under the UK licence ? There's no copyright on it so i would presume so..? Thanks Rob M0DTS http://www.m0dts.co.uk |

Hi
We are doing it here in Melbourne Australia as I speak.Tthe consensus amongst amateur TV operators here is that it is educational tv so it is ok to transmit. I have sent a letter to the authorities here seeking clarification about the issues. Heopfully they will agree that it constitutes educational tv and so is ok to transmit. In the US specific permission has been given for ATV stations to transmit NASA TV. It certainly is interesting from a scientific and technological point of view. cheers Peter VK3PB "M0DTS" wrote in message ups.com... Hi..

VK2TVG (I think) the Gladesville TV Club any way, have been doing it for
years, mostly from videotapes but also live. ACA approves of it's use. Brad. "Peter Berrett" wrote in message u...

Thanks Brad
By the way have TV Gladesville been showing any of the Space Shuttel coverage live? Last we night we had vision of Steve Robinson fixing the Space Shuttle - it was quite amazing to watch. Previously we have shown the launch of the Space Shuttle and also interviews with the crew as well as some other space walks. Mind you enjoy it while you can because I suspect that there is probably not going to be a space shuttle mission for a while after this one, possibly not ever if they decide to scrap the program. I'm still amazed at how NASA can send a craft like this up which, from a tile point of view, appears to be quite fragile. cheers Peter VK3PB |

Can't answer that Question Pete, I'm over 100km away and cannot receive a
thing from them. They used to gether quite a large audience when they were on 576MHz. Lots of people tuned into them when their new TV's autoscanned and found their test card. I was watching the webcast and connecting to them via packet everytime the flew over. Yep, it was pretty good video! I would love to have been able to receive the EVA signals direct but they are on 410.2MHz, wideband FM, 1.4MHz wide. Nothing I have would copy that. Brad. wrote in message ups.com...

Thanks Brad
One other quick question. You mentioned that ACA approves of the retransmission of NASA TV. Have you seen that in writing anywhere? By the way do check out my web page below. As you can see I have moved on up from SSTV to Fast Scan TV. cheers Peter VK3PB http://members.optusnet.com.au/vk3pb/ "Brad" bradvk2qq AT w6ir.com wrote in message ...
