↑ HF Propagation Explained

This page is part of the project "Understanding HF Propagation."

Skywave is the mode of radio propagation in which the radio signals return to Earth by refractions in the ionosphere.

Propagation Modes
It is most effective at frequencies beween 3 and 30 MHz thus enabling long-range communication. This phenomenon occurs in the ionospheric regions E, F1, and F2. There are sometimes ducting effects. The ionization levels, influenced by solar activity, can change rapidly. Tools like real-time maps and charts and/or watching explanatory videos can improve understanding HF radio propagation. See also an index of terms for HF Radio Propagarion.

The project "Understanding HF Propagation" provides
a detailed overview and tutorials on HF propagation.
