International Space Station, ISS, she called a radio amateur from space twenty years ago. A series of events is taking place on the occasion of this anniversary, when they are from the ISS they are broadcast in the band 145 MHz various SSTV images. The broadcast is on the frequency 145,800 MHz, My SSTV mode is PD120. However, bilateral connections will not be established, stations on Earth will only be able to receive SSTV images from the ISS.

Next ISS SSTV event

The next series is scheduled from December 24 2020 16.40 UTC on 31.December 2020 18.15 UTC. No sophisticated equipment is required for reception, you can also use a hand-held FM station. The received audio signal can be decoded with the MMSSTV program or through one of the applications on a tablet or smartphone.

Each flight over our territory lasts a few minutes. It changes at that time doppler frequency shift, both azimuth and elevation. ISS flybys can be calculated with some tracking program. It works fine for Android Look4SAT application, for other platforms try for example Gpredict. If you can do with online prediction of ISS flybys, use N2YO live tracker.
