Propstats Flash Propagation Update Issue resolved!
Well it took a bit of creativity, but I was able to resolve the issue with Propstats. The scripts that run in the background should now require much less CPU by my webhost. I learned a few php tricks along the way that may be of use in the future.
PropagationStats should again be fully functional for those who put it on their websites. The new scheme periodically polls the NOAA site and generates a single text file which is then grabbed by the flash code in PropagationStats - making my ISP happy.
Doing a quick internet search, I did come across a few cool ham radio sites using Propstats:
- Bangladesh Amateur Radio League
- Magnolia DX Association
- S50U Ham Radio Site
- Flagler Emergency Communications Association (F.E.C.A.)
- Montana Amateur Radio Emergency Services
- N6AQ Amateur Radio Community
- Milpitas Amateur Radio and Electronic Society
- Del-DX
- KC5LK
- G3VRE Chippenham UK Club
- University of Mississippi ARC
- K6RF
- KTØY
- Motorola ARC
- EA1WX ARS Spain
That’s folks in at least 5 countries using this little flash program.
If you find more sites using it or want to use it yourself, shoot me an email or note it here.
