I want to share with the global DX/contesting community a very handy piece of MF/HF propagation prediction software that I have been evaluating for a while. It is made by G4ILO who is a professional

It looks like our long run of good 160 propagation conditions is coming to an end, courtesy of an X class flare currently in progress, in association with sunspot group #10564 located at N15E00. This

I try to operate 160 PSK31 as much as possible but rarely see any activity as of late. I heard some signals last night but could not decode them because of a loose connection in my homebrew interface

True antipodal focusing of transmitted RF signals does occur at HF frequencies. BUT as Bob Brown NM7M pointed out in an earlier post the ionosphere at medium frequencies is to heterogeneous to suppor

Most of the propagation enhancement that we may mistake for antipodal focusing is actually via the E Valley/F Layer ducting mechanism. 73 & GUD DX, Thomas F. Giella, KN4LF Retired Space & Atmospheric

It will certainly radiate and very efficiently BUT it will have a high takeoff angle of maximum radiation. I have a 160-10 meter horizontal doublet up at 40 feet and I flip a switch to make it a tee

Carl K9LA is correct in his assertion that change in height of the ionosphere in the equatorial region during solar minimum does not translate to a change in the height of the mid and high latitude i
