Optimal Working Frequencies (MHz) for: NORTHERN SOUTH AMERICA
For May 2008 using the predicted smoothed SSN and Flux. Created by NW7US on June 03, 2007 |
NEW: ACE-HF PRO for SWL and Ham Radio propagation analysis and forecasting.
Please consider helping keep this service running. Thank you! |
These NW7US radio signal path propagation tables are set up to cover main regions of the world. Each chart displays the FOT (or Optimal Working Frequency) at each UTC hour, for the paths given.
These radio frequencies are a percentage below the MUF (Maxiumum Usable Frequencies), and should be acurate for about 80 percent of the month. However, if a geomagnetic storm, a solar flare, or other event occurs, there is no promise that a signal will actually make it through the path in question. Often, during ionospheric storms and solar events (like a solar flare), the FOT is lower, or the path might even be closed.
