SLOW-SCAN TELEVISION (SSTV) WITH VC-H1
Slow-scan Television (SSTV) is a popular application for
transmitting still images over the air from one station to
another. The VC-H1 is an optional portable unit which
includes all requirements for SSTV; a slow-scan
converter, a CCD camera, and a LCD monitor. You can
transmit or receive full-color images just by connecting
the VC-H1 to this transceiver. For further information on
the VC-H1, see the instruction manual for the VC-H1.
From this transceiver you can enter and superimpose a
message, an RSV report, and a call sign onto an image
on the VC-H1 monitor. You can also select colors for
those information.
Note: Use an optional PG-4V cable to connect the VC-H1 to this
transceiver. For this cable, contact your authorized KENWOOD dealer.
The cable that comes with the VC-H1 allows only image transfer from/ to
other stations.
Use the following Menu Nos. to program information and
select its color.
In addition, you can use Menu 3–8 (TX MODE) to
program a SSTV mode for the VC-H1. First connect the
transceiver to the VC-H1 and switch ON both the
transceiver and VC-H1. Press [MENU], [3], [8]. The
SSTV mode currently set on the VC-H1 appears. Press
[UP]/ [DWN] to select the desired mode, then press
[OK] to change the setting on the VC-H1. The
selectable SSTV modes are as follows:
• Robot (color) 36
• Robot (color) 72
• AVT 90
• AVT 94
• Scottie S1
• Scottie S2
• Martin M1
• Martin M2
• Fast FM
Note:
◆
Switch OFF both the transceiver and VC-H1 before making the
connection.
◆
When the VC-H1 is too close to the transceiver, transmitting at high
power using the provided antenna may cause malfunction. This is
caused by unwanted feedback.
