VP8 Propagation to Houston

 

According to the W6EL Propagation Forecast program, these are the best times for propagation between Texas and the Falkland Islands:

 

10, 12 &15 Meters - Late morning through mid-afternoon, peaking about 4:00PM Texas time. VP8SGK on South Georgia has noted that 10 was open to Europe at 1500 UTC on Nov. 3rd.

 

17 & 20 Meters - From 4 to 7 PM local with signals increasing after sunset.

 

30 & 40 Meters - Starting around sundown and lasting until Falklands sunrise (about 1 AM Texas time).

 

80 Meters - 9 PM to 1 AM Texas time.

 

Note that sunset times in the Falklands and Houston are only about 20 minutes different so that gray line propagation will be possible.  We will check 80 at this time. (Also 160 if we are able to put up an antenna.)
