Operating amateur radio satellites effectively requires precise knowledge of their orbital mechanics and pass times. Gpredict, a real-time satellite tracking and orbit prediction application, addresses this need by allowing operators to monitor numerous satellites simultaneously. It displays critical data such as position and pass details through various visualizations, including lists, tables, maps, and _polar plots_. Unlike many other satellite tracking programs, Gpredict introduces the concept of visualization modules. These modules enable users to group satellites and configure each group independently, offering unparalleled flexibility in how orbital data is presented. This modular approach supports tracking satellites from multiple observer locations concurrently, which is particularly useful for stations with diverse antenna setups or remote operations. Originally a GUI client for John Magliacane's _Predict_ program, Gpredict evolved to integrate its own tracking code for improved performance. The software is distributed under the GNU General Public License, ensuring it remains free and modifiable for the amateur radio community.

Managing extensive amateur radio contact logs efficiently requires specialized software that integrates various operational aspects. Aether provides a macOS-native logging solution, designed from the ground up using Apple's Cocoa, to streamline QSO entry, organization, and retrieval for Mac users. It supports modern macOS technologies and offers an intuitive interface, aligning with the user experience expected on Apple platforms. The application includes features such as automatic dupe checking, which quickly identifies previous contacts with a station, and awards tracking, indicating if a new contact is needed for specific operating awards. Aether also integrates rig control via RS-232, automatically populating frequency, mode, and power data from supported Elecraft, Icom, Kenwood, Yaesu, and some TEN-TEC transceivers. This automation reduces manual entry errors and speeds up the logging process. Furthermore, Aether offers comprehensive QSL management, including synchronization with eQSL.cc and Logbook of The World, and the ability to print QSO detail and address labels for paper QSLs. It also incorporates automatic callbook lookup from sources like QRZ.com and HamQTH.com, and calculates distance and beam heading, with Google Maps integration for visualizing contact locations. Full ADIF and Cabrillo import/export capabilities ensure compatibility with other logging software and contest submission platforms.

This resource details the construction of a versatile CW/QRSS beacon, designed around a Microchip _PIC16F84_ microcontroller. The project provides a flexible platform for transmitting either standard CW or very slow QRSS signals, making it suitable for LF, VHF, UHF, and SHF applications. It supports two distinct messages, each configurable for speed (from 0 to **127** WPM for CW, or up to **127** seconds per dot for QRSS) and repetition within a six-phase sequence. The core functionality relies on the PIC's EEPROM, which stores all operational parameters, including message content, transmission speeds, phase configurations, and relay control settings. This design allows for parameter modification directly via programming software like _ICProg_ without altering the main program code. The project includes a detailed schematic, a component list, and an explanation of the EEPROM memory mapping for messages, speeds, phase settings, and inter-phase delays. General-purpose outputs (OUT1, OUT2, OUT3) provide dry relay contacts for external control, enabling functions such as power switching, antenna selection, or frequency changes. A 'TRIGGER' input facilitates controlled starts or continuous free-run operation. Sample EEPROM configurations illustrate how to program specific beacon sequences, including message content and relay states.

Band-pass filters can be critical components in competitive stations. This setup may help put your station on the map.

Collection of world wide radio amateur maps by SP8DA

Understanding high-frequency (HF) skywave propagation is crucial for amateur radio operators seeking to optimize long-distance communications. This resource details the fundamental principles of HF radio propagation, including the properties of electromagnetic waves, the characteristics of various HF bands, and distinct propagation modes such as skywave, ground wave, and line-of-sight. It places significant emphasis on the ionosphere's pivotal role in refracting HF waves, explaining how solar activity directly influences ionospheric conditions and, consequently, propagation paths. The resource integrates real-time monitoring capabilities, featuring dynamic charts and data from DX clusters, WSPRnet, and the Reverse Beacon Network, which allow users to track current band activity and propagation conditions globally. It also delves into advanced topics like Near Vertical Incidence Skywave (NVIS) and gray line propagation, providing insights into ionosonde data and various propagation prediction models. The site presents a detailed analysis of solar-terrestrial interactions, geomagnetic indices, and space weather phenomena, illustrating their direct impact on HF communication reliability. Practical tools and applications are highlighted, including real-time QSO planners, online Maximum Usable Frequency (MUF) maps, and alerts for solar flares or geomagnetic storms. The guide systematically breaks down complex concepts into accessible chapters, offering a structured approach to learning about ionospheric regions, diurnal and seasonal effects, and the interpretation of propagation indicators like foF2, MUF, and Lowest Usable Frequency (LUF). This makes it a robust reference for hams aiming to deepen their technical understanding and improve operational effectiveness.
