Thanks to some creativity from hams in the digital mode world, it is easier these days to determine what regions of the world might be hearing your signal. You do not need to rely on JAVA radio receivers. Here are the one's I recommend..
----------------------------------- Mode= JT65A. An world-wide network of stations that reflect any received information from you back to the web site at http://jt65.w6cqz.org/index.html 80,40,30,and 20M are common bands. If any of the stations hear you, the results are automatically displayed within a minute. You are not dependent on others to manually enter in your details, like a cluster, it is all automatic. Your signal strength is also displayed. Example : VE3CDX/W7/RB [DM26ic] Heard PY4EM(GG88) on 14075.99 KHz -16dB at 23:11Z using JT65A BX1AD/RB [PL04vq] Heard JE5FLM(PM74) on 14075.98 KHz -3dB at 23:10Z using JT65A ----------------------------------- ALE (standard ALE). An world-wide network of stations that relay received information from you back to the web site at http://hflink.net/qso/ 40 and 20M are common bands. If any of the stations hear you, the results are displayed within a minute. Your signal strength is also displayed. Example : VK4TGV: [23:02:25][ 14 MHz] communication De [ZL1BAD] BER 30 SN 07 NJ7C: [23:01:41][ 10 MHz] communication De [W6MSU] BER 30 SN 09 VK4TGV: [23:02:26][ 14 MHz] communication De [ZL1BAD] BER 26 SN 07 NJ7C: [23:01:54][ 10 MHz] communication De [KM4BA] BER 20 SN 04 This is also automatic, very fast. If they hear you, you will find out quickly. ---------------------------------------- PSK31: A web page dedicated to several bands with some strategically placed stations relaying back who they heard automatically to the web page at http://www.projectsandparts.com/30m/ 30M is especially well covered but other WARC bands are featured. Example : 01-25 23:22 N9PUZ Auto EM59ft WA9AQQ 10.140 1192 PSK31 Working KI4KGL 01-25 23:21 N9PUZ Auto EM59ft KP4K 10.140 1490 PSK31 ------------------------------------------ PSK31: Propnet: Check http://propnet.org/catch.php?band=HG&last=1¢er=WW for latest world-wide stations heard. You need special software that produces a script that beacons your stations info and location. If your station is heard it appears in the list. Most WARC bands but especially 30M. ------------------------------------------- SSTV : N8FQ's new page monitoring 10132 kHz. http://71.90.101.47:8090/radio/30m_history.html Displays up to the 30 latest narrow band SSTV pictures heard at his central USA location. Judge your signal strength via the quality of the picture displayed . ----------------------------------------- SSTV: Pretty much the same as N8FQ's page but for wider modes of SSTV and on 20M, 14230. Check http://96.228.144.221:81/sstv.html -------------------------------------- CW: Check http://www.obriensweb.com/sked then choose the SKCC option. You then get a network of hams that you can ask to sked with and see if you are getting out. Often 30-40 hams there at once, during peak evening hours. Users seen in last 10 minutes: AA4GT - AJ1M - K0LUW - K2A/4 - K3UK - K8AQM - K8BBM - KA8HFN - KC0RSX - KC2MHU - KE0N - KE0QM - KM4VX - LW3EX - N1AFV - N5PU - W6UT - W9DLN - WB1EDI - WU7R MM/DD UTC 01/25 23:15 <LW3EX> Tnx Barry nada hr too rxng some stn fm west coast nw TU 73 01/25 23:12 <WB1EDI> ok no luck now to 10118 de K2A/1 01/25 23:06 <WB1EDI> k2a/1 14048 01/25 23:04 <LW3EX> Barry any chance to try on 20m? 01/25 23:00 <WB1EDI> k2a/1 7048 wb1edi 01/25 22:51 <K8BBM> K2A/0, 10121.0 ---------------------------------- Any more ?
