I wonder why DX propagation continues to be so bad? Certainly across the pond from Europe, signals are still at least 20dB below normal . . I've never known it be so poor for so long Roger G3YRO ____

Hi Roger, We currently have a combination of elevated A and K indices, an X class flare within the past 24 hours and we are 2 years into Cycle 25 with higher levels of SFI, SSN and absorption. Disapp

Thanks for that Bob (I must confess that I've never really been into understanding all the technical factors that affect propagation) But the thing is that I've been DX-ing on 160m for over 50 years

Roger, I somewhat agree that things do seem a little different this time as even HF is not reflecting what these high flux numbers should be doing. I may be wrong but this present run-up of the cycl

All the flare action normally happens on the downslope of the cycle.   Who knows what will happen then!! Roger, I am still trying to fix my 160 rx antennas 73 Dave K1WHS the higher bands. Roger, I so

Why do you say that? We had far more flares in 2022 than in 2021 and I expect more flaring in 2023 than 2022. And it is not just the frequency of the flaring that has increased, it is also the intens

Bob and Dave, Solar flares are primarily X-ray events that affect 160 meter propagation only on the sun facing side of the earth. Geo-effective Fast Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are by far the most

Hi guys This kind of propagation is common on 160m for this part of the solar cycle, I'd taking notes about propagation since 2006, and 2012 to 2014, all notes are very bad propagation in January, li

There's some confusion about the effects of increasing solar activity on 160 meter DX propagation. 160 meter DX propagation is often badly affected by nighttime propagation degradations, especially a

Fabulous explanation - Thank you Frank! 73 Bob, KQ2M 160 meter DX propagation is often badly affected by nighttime propagation degradations, especially as Solar Cycle 25 becomes much more active from
