geomagnetic information from real-time online sources, and presents 
them in charts and tables, including:

A grayline map of the world is also available. Propagation between 
locations within the grayline region of the world is often greatly

determine where those locations are.

MUF (Maximum Usable Frequency) and LUF (Lowest Usable Frequency) can also be
estimated between two points on the Earth.

DX Toolbox is available native for Mac OS X, Mac OS 8/9, and Windows. 
It requires an active internet connection to run.
