Slow-scan television transmissions are planned from the International Space
Station on Monday and Tuesday. The SSTV images will be transmitted as part
of the MAI-75 experiment on 145.800MHz FM. They will be made using the
Kenwood TM-D710 transceiver, located in the Russian ISS service module. It
is thought they may use the PD-180 SSTV format. []
