PropView includes the VOACAP, ICEPAC, and IONCAP propagation engines and
generates graphical forecasts in the QST style, as shown by the screenshots in

It also includes an IARU HF beacon monitor, enabling you to calibrate
forecasted propagation with actual pr

Hi Zack
Sadly I fear that you're correct in every respect. In line with the old maxim
"In the land of the blind the one-eyed man is king" experience shows that
people who are 99 percent ignorant but talk a good game market themselves as
experts to those who are 100 percent ignorant. And of co
W6ELProp is maybe not as good as VOAProp but it's decent, too. And it's

I still contend that IBM and others have no real RF engineers working for
them. None of them seem to understand radio-frequency interference or
near-channel effects on things such as noise floor.
We studied all of that when I was in college in 1974 studying RF
engineering. It's not new data, just
Hi all

Who uses a propagation prediction program? Which one do you use? Would you
recommend it?
In the past I've generally taken little notice of these, but decided to have a
play around, so to speak.

Actually it wasn't the BT Homeplug that was way off compliance. I think that

that, BT!). I shouldn't insult BT because I get a great broadband service from
them! There were however some "home networking" devices tha
Hi all
On the QRM front, I've noticed a huge increase in RF noise from items
like Christmas lights this year. Someone a couple of street away put
some twinkling LED lights in his garden, purchased from Tesco (a large
supermarket chain here in the UK). These fill 160 and 80m with a
rasping noise
