Ham Radio – A contact sport

For some strange reason (still unknown to me), the DXpedition Map and PropagationStats had stopped updating. There’s a lot of php code behind the scenes that I’ve used to create some of these tools and I guess I needed to convert to the new PHP version (5.X) to restore order. My ISP has warned that it will be phasing out support for the old version and perhaps this was one of the first signs that they’ve already started doing it.

Anyway, the Propagation Status utility is (once again) updating with current HF radio propagation data. If you would like to show HF radio propagation data on your website, then check it out.  It’s free.

Likewise, I had to make a few updates to restore the DXpedition Map (interactive map showing upcoming ham radio DXpeditions).

More changes to come. I’ve recently updated my Ham Radio Product Review system. The improvements there are going to make this a much better way to review ham radio equipment. Stay tuned.
