The current footprint of my 60-watt PSK31 signal during 50 percent of October 2009 at 2000 UTC and 2300 on 20 Meters:
(created with ACE-HF Pro version 2.05 Propagation Modeling Software) (these illustrate why I like running digital modes during the Solar Cycle minimum - PSK31, and other digital modes, get much farther than an SSB signal, using the same amount of power)
