Funny you mentioned SSTV. I'm putting some SSTV software together and have an SSTV contest award hanging on my wall. It's a lot of fun. Fast-scan (what I always think of when I hear ATV) seems pretty extreme to me though. :) Wiki seems to indicate it's used for drone work...or could be...

Huh! I suppose you could do SSTV decoding with a sound card eh? Hmmm, a bit of research suggests there's a 2m SSTV station in town here, although it's not clear if it's still alive. I might have to spend some time fiddling with GNURadio tonight and see what I can whip up.
I kind of want to pull out that cheap Chinese analog FPV camera too and see how disgusting the spectrum on it is. I have pretty low expectations (camera + tx + rx for $20? yeesh...)
