N0HR Propfire for Firefox Description

N0HR Propfire is an extension which displays HR radio propagation status in status bar.HF radio propagation status displayed in your browser status bar. Shortwave radio enthusiasts, ham radio operators and others can use this to monitor solar conditions that impact radio propagation.Ham Radio operators and other shortwave radio enthusiasts will be able to monitor propagation conditions using this Firefox extension.You should notice the solar propagation information circled in the image above. This data is retrieved from the NOAA website and is periodically updated in your browser as you surf the web. (assuming you are using Firefox).Ham radio operators monitor radio propagation conditions in order to determine possible openings to work DX (long distance radio contacts). To HF operators, this means world-wide QSOs (contacts) with very little power and with minimal antennas/equipment under the best conditions. When the solar flux numbers are high (many sunspots), and the A-index and K-index numbers are low (or zero), HF conditions are great for ham radio. VHF ham radio operators monitor these numbers (and others) to determine possible openings for other radio propagation modes such as aurora-skip.Both Ham Radio operators and SWL (short wave listeners) should appreciate this Firefox extension. By keeping an eye on propagation conditions, I hope that you'll be able to know when it might be a good time to go to the ham shack, turn on the radio, tune the antennas and work some good DX!Product's homepage
