Slow Scan TV on 10 MHz

Details of a narrow band version of Slow Scan TV (SSTV) for use on the 10 MHz (30m) band are now available.

The Amateur Radio 10 MHz band is only 50 kHz wide and by convention Amateurs in most of the world have not used it for wideband modes such as SSB or SSTV. Fortunately a narrow band version of SSTV is available and Amateurs are increasingly using it on this band.

An article by Andy K3UK on the subject is now available at
