The Young Ladies’ Radio League, Inc., K4LMB originated in 1939, when one YL wanted to see if there were any others out there. Thus 12 women banded together in a male dominated activity, growing an organization that reaches around the world.
Members are from all walks of life, all ages and all levels of ham radio interest. Whether they got into the hobby to talk to locally or go around the world to the strangest of places, the one radio interest they have in common is other Women in Amateur Radio (YLs).

SSTV takes a static (non-moving) image and “scans” it from right to left and top to bottom, and transmits the image in three primary colors using audio frequencies (in the same bandwidth as a voice transmission). Because it uses just audio frequencies, any radio that can transmit and receive voice can also transmit and receive SSTV
There are several You Tube, videos on how to set it up. There are several You Tube, videos on how to set it up. Essex Ham does a great job explaining the set up process, https://www.essexham.co.uk/sstv-the-basics
