Computer programs can predict it. They can model it. They can study and analyze it endlessly. But propagation, especially above 10 MHz, will continue to confound anyone using those frequencies for a good many years to come - at the least.
The only reliable indication that I have found are the beacons at 14.100. If you can hear one near where you are trying to communicate, you have something of a chance at success. 73, Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Guernsey Sent: Sunday, October 13, 2013 2:33 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] SSB Net Wish I could understand propagation. Last week all I could hear on 14.3035 was static. Today Phil was S9 into the Central Coast of CA, and I was able to check in with no problems at S7 to S9. I guess the answer is to try each week when I have the time. With my wife in a hospital 3 hrs away with a traumatic brain injury there are a lot of Sunday mornings when I do not get the chance, but I will keep trying when I can. 73 de Dave KJ6CBS ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
