During the last solar cycle, I used to receive a lot of SSTV on 20
meters. Now that that band doesn't propagate so well, I haven't found any SSTV in a long time. I've been checking the 40, 80, and 160-meter frequencies listed at http://www.tima.com/~djones/net.txt lately and not only do I never find any SSTV, but often there are QSOs close enough to those frequencies that nobody could go on air there if they wanted to. Once in a while I scan the entire band, but I never find anything. Am I just checking at the wrong times, or did everybody give up? The last time I was getting SSTV regularly, there were a lot of people switching to digital, and with my antenna at the time I could never get a clean copy. But I know what digital SSTV sounds like, and I'm not even hearing that now that I have a better antenna. |
