Actually, not many people are interested in transmitting SSTV over local FM radio. While local FM is relatively easy to use for most people, the difficulty of obtaining and using an appropriate antenna makes it challenging for them. Covers the entire city The effect, but most local radio stations don't bother with it because they prefer to focus on talk shows.
Furthermore, for receiving SSTV, the experience is much more enjoyable than sending (like opening a mystery box?), so not everyone wants to send.
Regarding SSTV on HF, it's even more important to schedule a time, and you can check this out:https://hamspots.net/sstv/
P.S.: Recently, I discovered a hidden feature in MMSSTV called "repeater mode." In simple terms, it allows you to retransmit the SSTV images that you receive. The process is roughly as follows:
- The transmitting radio station transmits a 1750 Hz single tone activation signal to the repeater.
- The repeater confirms its activation status and transmits a CW ID (typically a predefined sequence of CW information) to announce that it is active.
- Within N seconds after the CW ID transmission (the maximum allowable reception time, configurable), the transmitting radio station can send SSTV signals.
- decode repeater, save image
- After N seconds (configurable delay time), the repeater will transmit the current image again using a pre-defined SSTV mode.
Furthermore, in repeater mode, it supports beacon mode, which allows you to combine the most recent 4 images received into a four-image grid and send them.
