Roger is another long-time ATV partner who lives quite close to K8UHF over in Dimondale, MI. Roger has a superb station and noise-free pictures are the rule under any band conditions. Rather than show his pictures as I receive them, here are some samples of what he looks like down at W8BYA's QTH.

This is Roger's K2RIW amplifier for 70 cm ATV - about 800 watts output on sync! I do love ATV, but nowhere near that kind of power is required for a comparable path on SSTV!

Another of Roger's pictures as received by W8BYA shows the near-perfection that can be achieved with conventional SSTV over quite respectable distances on 144 MHz SSB!
