MMSSTV
One of the
biggest problem with slow scan today is not understanding computer
clock
alinement with computer programs.Slanted pictures and
pictures that jump in the middle
are
a result of clock settings wrong or getting stopped by another program.If you
load another
program into your computer on startup that uses the clock
it mite make pictures jump.
If
you aline your recieve first then your transmit picture it will work better for
on air tests.

switch to sstv for pictures and be able to make comments with voice
