WaveGuide is the amateur radio operator’s ultimate utility for determining HF propagation conditions, whether you’re in the shack with your linear or QRP mountaintopping.

Description:

Designed from the ground up as a Universal app that works on both iPhone and iPad, WaveGuide is easy, fun, and powerful. Utilizing data from the popular PSKReporter database, WaveGuide plots real-time propagation conditions, connecting stations with great circles to show exactly where band conditions are best. The colors of the great circles indicate the band, so it’s easy to visually determine how the ionosphere is behaving anywhere in the world.

Common uses of WaveGuide:

– See how band conditions fluctuate worldwide throughout the course of the day.
– Chase DX by finding far-off transmissions in your grid square.
– Track signals received by your home station while you’re away. How many countries can you collect?
