SSTV Images Received 20/03/2025
As I was away from the shack today, I decided to leave my radio (Yaesu FT-991A) connected to my PC (running MMSSTV) to see if any SSTV images could be decoded.
I was very surprised when I returned to the shack to find over 100 images saved. Although some were blurry and distorted, the majority were clear and readable.
The following images were received 20/03/2025 between 11:00-17:00 on 20m SSTV (14.230MHz) with a cobweb antenna:

New Article – Improving your QRZ Page
A new guide is live on my website titled “Improving your QRZ Page”. The guide covers how to format your page, useful information to include in your biography, how to add images and set featured images and how to embed useful tools such as POTA Statistics and Clublog OQRS into your QRZ page.
You can view the guide HERE (link opens in new tab).
So far, I have received positive feedback from the guide, and I hope it will be useful for you.

Coming Soon to M7OJA.com – A guide to improving your QRZ page.
I am currently in the process of writing an article on how to improve your QRZ.com page. I will cover the basic format and imaging of your page, ensuring all of your details are correct in the “detail” section, uploading an image and setting a main image (which is displayed automatically when DX stations search for you in their logging software), signing up to external services which can provide information and logging, updating your QSL information on QRZ.com and embedding external services into your QRZ.com page (such as HamAlert Cluster Spots for your station, POTA statistics, etc.).Keep an eye on the website for more information. When the article is published, it will appear under the “Getting Started” tab on the navigation menu. I will also notify via Instagram and my free newsletter.

New QSL cards!
This morning, the postman brought my new batch of QSL cards with a fresh design thanks to Tony LZ1JZ. I will be sending an initial batch of cards over the coming days. If you would like to request a card, please use the Clublog OQRS service. You can request a free bureau card, or make a contribution to the postage for a direct card.
To use Tony LZ1JZ’s QSL design and print service, visit his website HERE (link opens in new tab).
QSLing is one of my favourite parts of the hobby. It brings me pleasure to receive, send and collect cards. If you would like to get started with QSLing but don’t know how, you can visit my guide HERE (link opens in new tab).
