    Ah okay. Now if only the vanity fair article linked in this thread didn't mention this, which got me confused: "Miller got his ham radio license in 1943, founded his own electronics company called Wyman Research, and helped develop slow-scan TV, a technology that transmits still images across high-frequency radio bands. In 1972, he was honored as Amateur of the Year by a ham radio convention and later helped get SSTV aboard the Mir space station, building the system that beamed back images of earth in December 1998." It's just so strange that there's two Don Millers (both whom live in Indiana) involved in the relatively small amateur ham radio scene, one developed SSTV tech, the other traveled the world and tried to kill his wife.

      Something like 90% of amateur radio operators born before 1980 are named Bud. It’s not exactly a diverse crowd.
