Presents a web-based DX cluster interface, F5LEN Webcluster, which functions as a member node within the broader European DX Cluster network. It displays current DX spots across a wide range of amateur radio bands, from VLF through SHF, including specific bands like 1.8 MHz, 144 MHz, and 10 GHz, as well as satellite operations on QO-100. The service offers filtering options for various modes and activities, such as CW, QRP, IOTA, and specific VHF/UHF bands. Operators can access real-time propagation data, including Solar Flux Index (SFI), Sunspot Number (SSN), Kp index, and Auroral activity (Au), alongside tools for solar forecasts and tropospheric ducting predictions. The platform facilitates DX spotting by providing a centralized point for sharing and viewing contact information, aiding in DX hunting and contest operations. It also includes links to an Atlas, Sun tools, and a mobile version for portable access.

Nasa MSFC predictions on the behavior of current sunspot cycle.

SolarHam is a website all about the Sun and how it affects Earth. This site is routinely updated with breaking news, sometimes hours before other Space News websites. You can trust SolarHam.com for the most up to date and accurate solar information on the net. SolarHam is a trusted and easy-to-use website for anyone interested in solar activity and space weather. It gives daily updates on <b>solar flares</b>, sunspots, geomagnetic storms, and radio blackouts. The site uses data from NOAA and NASA to show what is happening on the Sun and how it may affect radio signals on Earth. Charts and images are clear, and reports are updated often. Many amateur radio operators use SolarHam.net to check band conditions and aurora forecasts before operating. The site is fast, well organized, and focused on the needs of the radio community. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced ham, SolarHam.net is a helpful tool for understanding space weather and its impact on radio communications.

Display solar activity forecast for next 27 days, display A-index, Sunspot Numbers and Flux forecast including graphs for solar activity and geomagnetic forecast. All forecasts are updated daily.

DX Propagation by DR2W! High resolution SNR maps in pseudo color. Propagation based on the actual sunspot number.

As the sunspots return and DX propagation conditions to improve, the age old problem with QRM begins to show up on the amateur bands. Thif filter help you on improving reception

Definition of smoothed sunspot number and R12 index

An article edited and published by Michael Mandeville on correlation of sunspot peaks and global events, like recessions or human conflicts. This document include solar cycle charts since Solar Cycle 1749-1751

The short history of the SSN Smoothed Sunspot Number at Luxorion

A review of the HF ham radio bands, considere by far the most popular bands in the amateur service. HF bands offer local QSOs and world-wide propagation are all possible at almost anytime with careful selection of the right frequency for the time of day, time of year, and current state of the sunspot cycle.

Real-time solar activity page at SpaceWeatherLive.com display sunspot regions, indicating sunspot numbers of with manitude class, Solar Flares and a list of daily events on the sun.

A dynamic graph of current and past solar cycle sunspot number progression and F10.7 cm radio flux progression. In both plots, the black line represents the monthly averaged data and the purple line represents a 13-month weighted, smoothed version of the monthly averaged data.

The document discusses the classifications of sunspots and their potential for solar flare activity, categorizing them into Alpha, Beta, and Delta groups based on their magnetic field characteristics. It explains how these classifications relate to the likelihood of solar flares, ranging from minor to extreme events. The report also outlines the geomagnetic indices and conditions that affect high-frequency (HF) radio propagation, emphasizing the effects of solar flares on radio communication and geomagnetic storms. The information is geared towards amateur radio operators, providing insights into how solar activity influences HF radio operations.
