[HCDX] Antipodal Focusing, how many SW hops is considered in the 'error margin' voids the definition being met?
Antipodal Focusing, how many SW hops is considered in the 'error margin' voids the definition being met? 1 hop seems to me well within tolerances, but hop lengths do vary with frequency (unless you are using a 'ground grazing' HRSxxx antenna type). An SW hop is 200 ... 300 kms (400 ... 600 kms arc-length-path)... - Original Message - From: "Charles Hutton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'a HCDX E-List'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, September 07, 2003 17:22 Subject: RE: [HCDX] Re: Antipodal Focusing > Since an antipodal path length is 12,500 miles and the error between the > true antipode and the antipode proposed earlier by Mr. Giella is over 3,000 > miles, I know I would not consider his example to be anywhere near > antipodal. > > I don't know of any previous claims that antipodal effect extend that far.

RE: [HCDX] Re: Antipodal Focusing
Since an antipodal path length is 12,500 miles and the error between the true antipode and the antipode proposed earlier by Mr. Giella is over 3,000 miles, I know I would not consider his example to be anywhere near antipodal. I don't know of any previous claims that antipodal effect extend that far. I wish it did, as southeastern Africa would be most welcome here.

Solar Flux Readings- 104 105 105 Sunspot Number- 60 X-Ray Solar Flares- C-0 M-0 X-0 X-Ray Solar flare activity has been unusually quiet lately with no M class flares since 03/08/19 and no X class solar flares since 03/06/15. However in the past few minutes a potentially large M or X class X-ray flare has occurred. Further data is unavailable a this moment. Averaged Background X-Ray Flux- B2.1 Energetic Protons >10 MeV (10+0)- None Geo-effective (Earth Facing) Coronal Mass Ejections (CME)- None Recurrent Coronal Hole #55 will become geo-effective (Earth facing) on 03/09/06-07 and begin impacting the geomagnetic field by 03/09/08. In the past 24 hour period the Ap index has been at active levels, with a peak of 17. In the past 24 hour period the Kp index has been at unsettled levels, with a peak of 3. Here are some "general" guidelines concerning correlation of propagation indices to actual expected HF/MF propagation conditions. 1.) Dropping indices numbers are better, except for solar flux on HF. 2.) For medium frequencies a solar flux under 150, under 100 better, 70 is best for E layer multi hop. Keep in mind though that the 10.7 cm (2800 mhz) solar flux index is not a "reliable" gauge of ionization in our atmosphere, as the energy of photons at this frequency is to low on the order of one million times. 2a.) For high frequencies a solar flux of 100 is okay, 150 better, above 200 best for F layer multi hop. 3.) Solar flux of at least 100 for E valley-F layer ducting mechanism. 4.) Previous 24 hour Ap index under 10, under 7 for several days consecutively is best. 5.) Previous 3 hour Kp index under 3 for mid latitude paths, under 2 for high latitude paths, 0-1 for several days consecutively is best. 6.) Energetic protons no greater then 10 MeV (10+0) for 160/120 meters and no greater then (10-1) on MF broadcast band. 7.) Background x-ray flux levels less than C1 for several days consecutively for 160/120 meters and less then B9 for MF broadcast band. 8.) No current STRATWARM alert. 9.) IMF Bz with a (+) positive sign, indicates a lesser chance of high latitude path auroral absorption/unpredictable refraction or scattering of MF RF signals, when the Kp is above 3. TODAY'S PROPAGATION LESSON #6- Electron Gyro-frequency Absorption- Unfortunately medium frequencies fall within and very near the electron gyro-frequency, which is in the approximate range of 630 to 1630 kHz. Of course this means that the MF AM broadcast band and 160 meter band is impacted significantly. There is a direct correlation between the strength of the Earth's magnetic field lines and electron gyro frequencies. Basically the electron gyro-frequency is a measure of the interaction between an electron in the Earth's upper atmosphere and the Earth's magnetic field. The closer a transmitted medium frequency carrier or sideband wave frequency is to the electron gyro-frequency, the more energy that is absorbed by the gyro electrons from that carrier wave frequency. This is especially true for medium frequency radio signals traveling perpendicular to the Earth's magnetic field, meaning high latitude NW and NE propagation paths. Unfortunately this form of medium frequency signal absorption is ALWAYS present. To see a global map of gyro-frequencies go to this web link: http://www.kn4lf.com/gyrofrequency.jpg 72 HOUR PROPAGATION OUTLOOK- We will see continued quiet Kp-<2 to unsettled Kp-3 geomagnetic conditions through the 8th. Unfortunately though we can expect a return to active Kp-4 to minor storm Kp-5 by conditions on the 9th, thanks to recurrent Coronal Hole #55. GLOBAL HF 3000-3 KC PROPAGATION CONDI

That would be a sensation. BBC German is only on FM (I'm happy to live in Leipzig, one of the few cities served). Either it is something brand new, or a tx switching error, or some spurious in your receiver. It's right that DW shouldn't be there. 6190 Deutschlandfunk, from tx in Berlin, has not enough power to be *that* strong in NM on 6195. > 0430 1915 NIG Radio Nigeria Abuja E..

It is quite common for them to relay central news, from Lagos, or nowadays maybe Abuja (Lagos used to be Kaduna's "sister" station on 4990). Not only in these joint broadcast FRCN stations often ID as "Radio Nigeria", so it was definitely Kaduna you listened to.
