Watching 10m Propagation Move Across the Planet Over 24 Hours
I’ve always wanted a way to actually watch HF propagation evolve over time instead of only looking at static maps or spot lists.
So I ended up building a “Replay” view into DXLook that animates the last 24 hours of HF activity on a world map using 15-minute intervals.
It synchronizes the propagation data with the day/night terminator, which makes some patterns extremely obvious. On 10m especially, you can literally watch the band follow the sunlight around the planet: openings expand after sunrise, shift geographically during the day, then collapse again after sunset.
The replay is built from aggregated data from PSKReporter, Reverse Beacon Network, WSPRnet , and DX Clusters.
The clip is a full 24-hour replay on the 10 meters band.
I thought some people here might find it interesting from a propagation-analysis perspective.
