DXprop is a radiowave propagation forecast freeware for ham radio operators, permits to predict propagation on 12 frequencies. Use Minimuf 3.5 routine developped for US Navy. Available in French and English

Comprehensive guide to understanding of solar indices, reading this article you will allow a better understanding and interpretation of propagation forecast bulletins and propagation reports

The website offers a comprehensive guide on high-frequency (HF) skywave propagation for amateur radio operators. It explains HF radio propagation fundamentals, including electromagnetic wave properties, HF bands, and propagation modes like skywave, ground wave, and line-of-sight. The site focuses on the ionosphere's critical role, influenced by solar activity, in refracting HF waves for long-distance communication. Real-time monitoring tools such as DX clusters, beacons, and digital modes like FT8 assist users in tracking band activity and propagation conditions globally. Forecasting methods are detailed, highlighting scientific insights into solar-terrestrial interactions and ionospheric variability. The guide also covers advanced topics like NVIS and gray line propagation, ionosonde data, and propagation prediction models, making it a valuable resource for ham radio enthusiasts aiming to optimize communications

The article enlightens radio amateurs on utilizing real-time space weather data to optimize HF communication. Navigating through Hp30 index, MUF, f0F2, and eSFI metrics, it explains their significance in band selection and propagation forecasting. With essential links and practical insights, enthusiasts learn to discern optimal conditions for high-band DX, low-band DX, and NVIS operations. The author's observations and antenna optimization tips enrich understanding for effective HF operations.

HF-START can estimate HF propagation between any given 2 points over Japan in real-time by using GNSS tomography, and can be used to forecast HF propagation 1 day in advance between any given 2 points globally by using GAIA model.

In 2004, Carl Luetzelschwab, K9LA, wrote a guide on using W6ELProp for radio wave propagation predictions. This tutorial, translated for broader accessibility, explains initial setup, configuration, and daily use. It emphasizes using mean solar index values for accuracy, helping users effectively predict and interpret propagation for improved amateur radio operations.
