Second SSTV signal at 10,000 petameters

[DAL59]

It is well known that there's a Duna pyramid that makes an SSTV signal(sound that can be made into image).  

Three years ago, it was found by @Holo that if you go 10,000 peta meters from kerbol, another signal appears.  @holo was unable to do it again.  It is possible it only works once per install- so have recording software ready.  It also must be an actual vessel, not a part ejected by a bug.

This has been covered already I think. It turned out to just be a game bug not a signal.

Does it work in 1.8?

This is really interesting

perhaps the alien planet was supposed to be there!

There are plenty of bugs to be found on Voyager-type missions. I'm guessing there are limited protections from overflow errors in either Unity or KSP or both.
I get persistent graphical corruption from switching to an extreme-distance ion probe that did a solar slingshot maneuver 200 game years back. Requires restart.

Operation Seperatronator is GO!!!!

The chatterer mod has several SSTV tones in it which sound very similar to the one from the Duna pyramid. Has anyone tried turning those into images?

So how does an average player take that signal and convert it to an image.

And,going the other way, how could someone take an image and convert it into a signal like that for use in the game?

It might happen if the average player is old and/or geeky enough to have dabbled with SSTV encoding/decoding

Debian has a bunch of metapackages for Ham radio stuff. Qsstv is where I'd start for sstv.

Tho this is old, this post will be helpful to others who stumble across it.

has a Windows program that can convert SSTV audio to pictures and vice versa.

It has been proven that there is no second signal.
