The purpose of this experimental website is to provide 24-7-365 actual (
*/REALTIME/*) band condition information to CW QRPp, QRPe and CW / SSB
Contesters interested in increasing their scores. It can also be of
benefit to other Radio Amateurs to determine band condtions for Nets and
casual QSO's. This information is NOT based on any software predictions
or any kind of satellite based readings. It's is based on a new
Ionospheric sounding method called "HF Ionospheric Interferometry" which
operates very similarly to the PolSAR system used by NASA.

_INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE ...REAL TIME CONUS BANDCONDX_
This page shows the ACTUAL REAL TIME conditions of the 80 to 15 meter
bands across the Continental US ( CONUS ), with the exception of Alaska.
Reports are generated and uploaded to the web server every 30 seconds.
Header information includes a Date, Time in GMT and a REPORT number in
sequencial order. A web browser refresh command is also sent so the user
does not have to hit the refresh button for the latest report. The web
browser does it automatically for them. The display shows the Meter Band
in RED and the BAND QUALITY INDEX ( BQI ) as a BLUE number at the bottom
of the band scale.
