Solar Activity & HF Propagation
Propagation is a fascinating subject. It affects us all, is discussed at length on QRP-L, but is understood by few ! Just what does that Storm graphic mean ? That's bad isn't it ? Er, or is it good ? What about that K-index - or should we use the A-index ? Just what do those numbers mean anyway ?

Paul Harden NA5N is one of those rare individuals who really understands his subject and has a talent for explaining in a way we can all understand. He's also a whizz at presentation. This feature is set to become a classic, full of hints and tips - you will become your local club's propagation guru !
