*UPDATED 7/30/2000*

Now you can send and receive COLOR SLOW SCAN TV with the Sound Blaster! It is a very inexpensive way to see what SSTV is all about. Just about everyone with a computer also has a Sound Blaster compatible card, so why not do it? Slow Scan TV is getting very popular, now that the prices for doing it are reasonable. If you listen to 14.230 Mhz on 20 meters any weekend, you will hear the strange sounds. There are so may people getting into SSTV that they now spread to 14.233 Mhz as well. These frequencies are meeting frequencies only, and many people will move to another clear spot to send their pictures.
