This page is part of the project "Understanding HF Propagation."
by Doron Tal, 4X4XM

Understanding the propagation of skywaves is essential for radio amateurs who want to improve their communication skills

Propagation Modes
Skywave compared to line-of-sight and ground–wave modes

This project provides radio amateurs with a detailed overview and tutorials. Find here basic and advanced explanations, practical methods, map-charts, banners, calculators ↗, real-time reports 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, models 1, 2, 3, table of contents, index of terms, and references ↗. The entire website contains additional pages that each cover a sub-topic. See the sitemap.


The project "Understanding HF Propagation" focuses on near-real-time indicators and explains what they mean.
