MAI activation delayed one day

Russian experiment MAI-75 SSTV activity delayed to Sept. 14 and 15. Activity should still be around 12:00-16:00 UTC each day. The system being planned for use is the Space Cam SSTV system that sends stored images so folks in darkness will have a chance to caputure images. The expected mode will be Martin 1. Most of the activity is directed towards Moscow but the system is sometimes left on between passes over Russia.
