OK, guys - Now it's MY turn.
(Pops one finger at a time - which with my broke pinky finger, I understand, is quite a chore)
I have been wondering why my SITOR and RTTY videos have been getting some views lately, so I did an online search for "neat stuff with sitor", and it led me to this board, which I'm glad to be a member of.
Gosh, Larry, I don't know quite what to say. Thanks a lot! I need all the viewers I can get. I don't know about "tearing up the internet", but these videos have been getting quite a bit of views lately. Thanks to everyone out there for your interest!
Well, that's right, I don't have a girlfriend. Until I can afford a partial, I don't guess I'll attract one for some time. Now, I used to get Frederick's catalogs when I was a teenager - and frankly, when the women were worth looking at. Nowadays, women in catalogs look too plastic for me. When I got a 1988 JC Penney catalog at a yard sale a couple of months ago, I could really tell the difference between the gals in the lingerie section THEN vs. NOW.
To answer the original question, in addition to the other programs mentioned, there's SeaTTY for WeatherFax. It'll save the graphics for you after the transmission is over, or you can click "stop" and "save". A freeware program called MMSSTV seems to be OK for SSTV pictures. I wanted to do a "Neat Stuff with SSTV" video, but my radio - and I'd guess the DX-440 in general - isn't friendly with the SSTV frequencies. I have to turn my computer monitor off to stop the whistling on those frequencies. I did get a few very staticy pictures, but I guess you have to get one of those things like an MFJ-956 to get much use out of SSTV on a DX-440. I guess you could call it a "low-end, front-end" radio. Gosh, It's amazing the stuff you read about a radio in between the time you BID on it, and the time you GET it.
Wait a minute - a Stephen King novel?
