VOACAP - point-to-point propagation predictor ...


Coincidence or good programming? Made contact with a station in south Africa and the chart looked like this ...

Dug this up from a thread on eHam. Seems like a pretty useful tool for predicting DX conditions;

VOACAP Online - professional-grade high-frequency (3-30 MHz) point-to-point propagation predictions


Thanks Mr. Klondike Mike,
Been trying to QSL now into 44 Division for LITERALLY months now!

Never had achieved a QSL yet, even though I know my mobile setup can do it from the Pacific Northwest.

Now I know why it's not happening.....

I'm trying to QSL the wrong time of day!!!!

I have heard others making contact, but they are located on the eastern seaboard, when I am located on the western side of North America AND CQing four hours too early!!!!

Now I know why....

Thanks for sharing this link!

Paul

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned

    Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
