IEEE CTS LMAG and CTCN Aug 17,2023 meeting: Introduction to Solar Weather
Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/367858High Frequency (HF) Radio propagation is dependent on Solar Weather. Ultraviolet radiation from the sun creates and maintains the ionosphere. Solar flares, coronal mass ejections and coronal holes, also from the sun can deteriorate or disrupt HF propagation. This presentation will introduce the positive and negative effects of solar weather on HF propagation, and how a HF radio operator can detect and compensate for these effects and maintain HF communications. Speaker(s): Lewis Thompson Agenda: 6:00 to 6:05 PM - Open for participants to enter and network. 6:05 to 6:10 PM - IEEE LM and CTCN Business meeting and to introduce speaker. 6:10 to 7:30 PM - Formal Program and Q&A.
