Analysis of MHz reports from the UK MHz reports and logs for June from GAHU, G3IMW, G3USF, GTMV, GUPS, GAEV, GIHF and packet cluster reports. Compilation and commentary by GAEV. As expected at midsummer, sporadic E dominated propagation on 1m, but there were still F openings on circuits to the south (to Africa and southern South America) on many days. Sporadic E was relatively poor in the first half of the month perhaps the poorest early June in 1 years, according to &1 records - but conditions improved significantly in the second half of the month with some days recording continuous propagation from early morning through to late evening. Beacon graphs legend. Legend for all beacon graphs in this section: - graph bars (left Y-axis): beacon reliability as the percentage of days a beacon was heard by any UK observer within each time band. Graph lines (right Y-axis): signal strength as the average of the daily maximum signal reported by any observer in each time band. Time band codes (X-axis): =-9, 9=9-1, 1=1-15, etc. Callsigns are followed by daily reliability figures, the percentage of days per month when the beacon was reported. European Propagation / Beacons. Propagation modes for European beacons. All European beacons were heard by Sporadic E (except for GB3RAL, which is heard via tropo at GAEV). As expected there was a complete absence of F propagation (direct or scatter) within Europe but some Es-backscatter was noted mainly on EITEN. There was also short-skip direct-path sporadic E from EITEN and from the other close 1m beacon PI7ETE, and some long single hop or double hop to SV3AQR and ER1AAZ. Multi-hop Es to DX destinations are reported later. Eight beacons exhibited daily reliabilities of greater than 5% (i.e. they were heard and reported on more than half of the days in the month). EADAT was the most reliable with a daily reliability of 77% - although this was only slightly more than the 7% posted by OKEG in May and compares poorly with the reliabilities of 9% for IYM and 97% for S55ZRS obtained in June 3. As demonstrated using m data (see section of this Report), sporadic E in late May and early June was relatively very poor and although conditions were very much better in late June, overall monthly averages are low. Best days for 1m Es this month were 15 th, 19 th, and the period 3 rd -9 th inclusive. Beacon monitoring results are combined by averaging all reports in the periods for which there is data periods where no one was monitoring are not included and missed periods do not affect the results. However the listening patterns of individual reporters has an influence. For example I (GAEV) listen more often in the evenings than at other times and I was the only observer to hear (or perhaps even listen for) the out-of-band German multi-mode beacon DA5MBB on.7. It is unsurprising, therefore, that the results for this beacon are restricted to a single peak in the 1z period. No amount of averaging can make up for lack of reports at other times! Such results provide no useful propagation information. Luckily, there are a number of strong and well-reported European beacons for which we have plenty of data. These are (with number of reports received in June in brackets): DKTEN (), EADAT (17), F5TMJ (59), IYM (137), OKEG (93) and SK5AE (5). Results for these beacons in the following graphs can be considered representative of the Es propagation experienced in June. There is some, if equivocal, evidence from these beacons of higher reliabilities in the mornings and late afternoons. Interestingly, all these beacons also show dips in mean signal strength in the 1z period. The results from the other beacons do not illustrate general Es trends well because they are influenced by the listening patterns described above, are new/intermittent operations (e.g. IZDAY), or difficult to hear because of low power output or the distance from the UK (e.g. PI7ETE, ER1AAZ).

Five German beacons were heard in June but results were slightly disappointing with even the best of the bunch DKTEN only reported on 5% of days (compare with 7% in June 3). DFANN is QRP, while DL5KZ is high in the band at.3 and perhaps overlooked. Although I often listened for DA5MBB I only heard it on two days in June and not at all in July so the beacon may either be very intermittent was only active for a short period. DLIGI is, of course, QRT. EADAT was the most consistent beacon in June, being audible almost continuously on some days. IYM also posted good results but the I1M beacon was under-reported. A new beacon IZDAY appeared on.39 but now seems to be inactive. IK1ZYW, a QRP/QRS beacon supposed to be transmitting on.3 has not been reported in the UK despite good propagation recorded by IYM. The S55ZRS 1m beacon is clearly off-air though the m beacon continues to operate. Results for LATEN are poorer than expected and may have had a problem in previous seasons this QRO beacon has performed better than LA5TEN. LATEN has now (July) apparently gone off-air. Results for the Finnish beacon OH5RAC on 335 are not as good as expected possibly because it is a new beacon but the good news is that the IARU/NCDXF beacon OHB returned to service in late July.

Propagation to Asia, Africa, Oceania, South and Central America. Beacon Graphs. 1 XTU [3%] 9 1 15 1 1 1 5BCY [53%] 1 9 1 15 1 1 1 1 5ZB [7%] 9 1 15 1 1 1 1 CS3B [%] 9 1 15 1 1 1 1 HP1AC [3%] 9 1 15 1 1 1 1 LU1FHH [57%] 9 1 15 1 1 1 1 LUAA [57%] 9 1 15 1 1 1 1 LUJJ [7%] 9 1 15 1 1 1 1 PY3PSI [7%] 9 1 15 1 1 1 ZS1J [3%] 1 9 1 15 1 1 1 ZSDN [3%] 1 9 1 15 1 1 1 Suggested propagation modes. HP1AC was heard via multi-hop Es on 5 th June during an Es opening to North America (more on which below). Double-hop sporadic E was responsible for the propagation from XTU and 5BCY. F is a possible candidate for some of the 5B openings, but the available evidence coincidence with Es propagation at single-hop distances and with m openings together with theory and past studies strongly suggest Es. The propagation mode for CS3B is rather more difficult to determine but is probably, for the most part, also sporadic E - although it has been suggested elsewhere that F was the dominant mode. Data from previous years for CS3B see the graph (left) from The Six and Ten Report (February 3) - shows that F-layer propagation peaks in the winter but that sporadic E adds to the circuit during the summer. The bars on the graph represent average daily reliability for each month over a four-year period. The line is an extrapolation of the F trend, which suggests some summer F during the solar maximum years. The part above the line is interpreted as due to Es. In June the daily reliability for CS3B was % which would match the Es component for June in this graph with only a minor addition of F propagation. The other beacons reported (in Africa and southern South America) were heard by normal F-layer propagation, perhaps at times with the assistance of a sporadic E first hop. Beacon Notes. As suggested last month it looks certain that XTU has a problem as this beacon should show results similar to those for 5BCY. The results from the ZS beacons are rather poorer that expected ZSDN should behave at similar levels of reliability to the LU beacons but there are no known reasons why this should be. PY3PSI is believed to be intermittent The Six and Ten Report, June Section 1, UK MHz analysis, page 3 of

1m DX in June. The following list of DX countries worked or heard in the UK comes mainly from packet cluster spots (DX Summit: http://ohaq.kolumbus.com/dxs/) and from Six and Ten reporters. The countries heard in the Middle East, North Africa and North America (including the Caribbean) are all via Es.

Propagation to North America. Suggested propagation modes. Multi-hop sporadic E was the mode responsible for the propagation between UK and North America. The results below are slightly disappointing as 1m beacon monitoring detected only events on the evenings of 5 th and 7 th June while m operators managed to find some propagation on 1 days in June. Many of the m openings were tenuous and may not have opened to areas with sufficiently QRO 1m beacons, but past experience shows that most m transatlantic events can be detected with beacons. And 1m should produce some openings that never make it to the higher frequencies. The discrepancy is probably due to the high levels of operator activity on m rather than for any propagation reasons. I found it very difficult to raise anyone in the USA for a 1m QSO during the fairly extensive opening on the 5th despite hearing moderate powered beacons coming in a reasonable strength.

The beacons heard above are all known to be continuously active from observations made by listeners in the USA and Canada. The history of active beacons in N America continues to evolve with new beacons appearing from time to time as noted by G3USF in his beacon notes as reported in section 5 of these Reports.

Analysis of 5 MHz reports from the UK UK 5 MHz reports for June from GADR, GAHU, G3HBR, G3IMW, G3USF, GUPS, GAEV and via packet cluster spots. Compilation and commentary by GAEV. Sporadic E. This month I was able to draw upon over 5 sporadic E contact and listener reports provided by UK amateurs. A significant number of these reports were provided by &1 readers, for which I am especially grateful as they tend to report a higher proportion of common country contacts than spots on the packet cluster. Common country contacts may not inspire the DX-orientated but are as important as any other contact when trying to quantify propagation. Thanks to all our contributors! There was some sporadic E recorded on every day in June. This statistic is rather misleading as there was a huge variation between the poorest days when only a handful of contacts were made with stations in one or two countries and the best days when contacts numbered thousands with stations located in 5 or more countries. The first week of June (and the last few days of May) were very poor but conditions improved in the middle part of the month with country scores helped by several well-supported m contests. The last week of June saw excellent sporadic E. Best days (when or more countries were reported) were 15 th, 19 th, th, 5 th, th, 7 th and th. The perception of many listeners was that June was a poor month overall for sporadic E. This was certainly true for the start of the month, but what about the last week? To try and draw some kind of quantitative assessment I have plotted the early summer m country/area scores against a 1-year average. The results of this exercise are shown in the graph below. I have used 7-day moving averages for both the and 1-year mean data to highlight the general trends while avoiding the noise of day-on-day variations. This is a measure I have used successfully elsewhere. I have also started the year on 1 st March the Es minimum period to avoid chopping the winter season into two! 1 1 1 1 1 1-Mar 1-Apr 1-May 5 MHz Es (7day moving averages) -5 season compared to 1 year average 1-Jun 1-Jul 1-Aug 1-Sep 7day moving av 199-7day moving av 5 MHz /5 1-Oct 1-Nov 1-Dec 1-Jan 1-Feb The 1-year average line shows rather well the slightly skewed summer seasonal trend, the well-known winter season and the less-well known autumnal season. Because of the evolving nature of the countrymeasure over the years, comparisons between the 1-year mean data and those for are somewhat subjective though the trends are clear. The line representing the season suggests more Es than the 1-year average in April through to mid May followed by a marked drop in late May and early June (in fact, was the worst early June of any of the preceding 1 years). June Es conditions, on the basis of this comparison, exceed the 1-year mean only in the last week of the month (subject to modification when July data are included in the moving averages).

Brian G3HBR says, June was the first moderately good month of the year with sporadic E on several days. DX heard was STDX on 1/ at 153, he was 559 and VE1YX who was 559 at 173 on 15th. I worked 7XAD on CW on 1/ and SSB on 3/. Just heard SVASP/A (Mt. Athos) on / but much to weak to work and also heard but didn't work J79KV on /. G3HBR is one of those who detected the generally poor Es conditions. Brian writes, I am now fairly sure this is the worst summer season since I have been on six. It certainly isn't all down to lack of activity. Will this be the first year when I fail to work VE and W - I hope not! Ray GAHU commented on the particularly good m propagation to/from Morocco as indicated in large part by the CNMC beacon. Ray heard signals from CN when there were no other signals on or 5 MHz, and reports high reliabilities on the path between CN and his location in Herefordshire. &1 observers and DX cluster users reported signals from CN on % of days in June. I am not surprised by these results I would expect relatively high reliabilities where the path length is close to km because these represent a single hop at an MUF close to 5 MHz. Shorter distances require higher MUFs that are attained less often. On 1 st June Ray thought he heard JALT, which would have been an exceptional catch, but reports from other listeners at the same time and on the same frequency suggest the station heard was ZA/PE1LWT. Sporadic E results below are in tables grouped by country area and ordered alphabetically by country prefix. Percentages following the country name are the daily reliability values (the number of days when propagation was reported). The first row of each table, D is the day of the month, subsequent rows give the maximum signal strength reported from the UK in each of three hour time bands ( for the band - 9, 9 for the band 9-1, etc.).

DX (F and TEP) Propagation. There was a single DX report this month at 175z on the 17 th MW1MFY (IO1) heard the TRA beacon at 519 together with 3C video signals at S9+. There were, of course, many other reports of DX from northern Africa, the middle east and from North America and the Caribbean, but these were the results of, 3 and (to N America) perhaps sporadic E hops. TR and 3C are more likely to be Es + F? Aurora. No auroras were reported at 5 MHz last month, and this time we only have the following: MMAMW (IO75) > VEBY 539 AU E 15 139 G3VQO (IO91) > ESDH (KO) AU tone I think that the VEBY might be normal multi-hop Es the opening followed transatlantic Es to the US and Canadian East Coast, and the geomagnetic indices do not suggest aurora (e.g. Lerwick K = 3). The time of day (late evening) does suggest auroral E and it is true that GM to VE is often via this mode. Auroral E can occur under relatively quiet magnetic conditions, though the probability of paths being open by this mode increases markedly as the auroral oval moves further south during an aurora. I have counted this report as auroral E in the tabulation in Section 3. The report on the 15 th is likely to be correctly ascribed to aurora it is described as auroral tone although again the K-indices indicate rather quiet magnetic conditions. However Kp reached 5 earlier in the day. I ve counted this one as a genuine aurora report. Meteor Scatter. A reasonable selection of meteor scatter contacts/reports this month, and mostly by traditional (nondigital) modes too. Much of this activity was inspired by contests there is no reason to suppose that similar results couldn t be obtained at other times. 1 FIRF > GVSM/P strong/long bursts 71 LAPV > GVSM/P MS 13 DL1EJA (JO31) > GHOU/P (IN79) 55/55 MS 15 GPCI > GB3LER/B 319+MS 1 1-15 F5TND (IN9) > GDTEP/P strong bursts ; IW1AZJ > GDTEP/P strong burst 1 155 GCHE > GMVXB JTM MS QSO 19 1-155 LAPV > MDV 57 MS; DH3IAJ (JN) > MDV MS some bursts 19 19 LAPV > MVHFMS long bursts 19 15- DL3YEE (JO) > GVHF, > MVHF 59 MS; DL7UAE (JO) > GVHF heavy MS 13 LAPV > MDV 57 MS FFHP > G5B 5 iono + MS 917 OE5MPL > MDV 53 MS 1 FDXW (IN7) > MVHF long burst 133 ON5WC > MDV bursts to s9 3 1 F5TND (IN9) > GB3LER 559 QSB (presumed MS) 3 31 F5TND > GB3LER in/out (presumed MS) The Six and Ten Report, June Section, UK 5MHz analysis, page of 7

Tropospheric propagation. The list of contacts and reports below suggests the midsummer month to have been very productive for tropo propagation. A good number of these are contest contacts. The list is only a selection of the tropo contacts reported I have tried to pick the longer contacts (although this is quite difficult to do successfully with out research into locations/locators) or those where the reporter has intimated that the tropo conditions were particularly good. 73 GUPS > GB3BAA unusually clear 559 5 PAPA (JO1) > GB3BAA/B 5 1 GPCI (IO91) > EI3IO cq 5 5 1-13 GAEV (IO1) ONIQ (JO) 55, ONAA (JO11) 57; GPCI > ONAA 5 153-171 GAEV > GMIGS (IO75) 19, EIJD (IO3) 53, GTSM > GHOU/P IN79 5 11-1 PE1HWO > MIDU/P (IO91), GPCI > PAT (JO1) 319 5 9-15 ONIQ > GVSM/P (IO7), GAEV 599 5 G-SWL (IO93) > GVSM/P Nice Tropo in North Yorks! 1 GAEV > ONPS/P (JO) 53 7 117 F5CT (JN) > GB3BAA 9 13 G3IMW (IO) > GB3BAA 519/19 GB3BUX is stronger 1 1 F5TND (IN9) > G3NVO (IO91) 57 13 1 GCHE (IO9) > F5JKK (IN7) 15 19 MMBSM (IO) > G1SWH (IO3) 5 1 13 ON5LGS (JO1) > GDTEP/P 53 (presumed tropo) 1 19 ON7GB > GW3MFY (presumed tropo) 19 13-1 DK3RV (JO31) > MVHF (JO1); PE1M > MDV strong 19 13 GAEV > ONIQ 55 3km 19 159 GAEV > PAM (JO1) 59 7km 19 1715 PAO > MDV 5 19 11-1 PA7FM > MDV; ON7GB (jo1) > MDV 19 19 F5JKK (IN7) > G1KHX (IO1) 19 1 F5JKK (IN7) >MVHF (JO1) very strong 19 5-1 GPCI > PAM (JO1) 1, G7RAU (IO9) > PAM 59 19 11 PAO > MDV53-55 tropo 19 37 DL3YEE (JO) > MVHF 53 tropo -711 GPCI > PAM 55; PAPA > MDV constantly in ; PHM > GFUN 111 DL3YEE (JO) > MVHF (JO1) 55 131 GMHLV (IO7) > MVHF weak but readable (presumed tropo) 135-13.

Solar and Geomagnetic Data for June Data supplied by GCAS (Sun Mag 1 ) and from Internet sources. Compilation by GAEV. Sunspot numbers (SEC) Mean 77. Max 1 ( th ) Min (1 th ) Solar Flux ( MHz) Mean 97. Max 119 ( th ) Min (3 th ) Solar data for June are presented in the table at the end of this section. Numbers in the and 5 MHz columns of this table are the total daily areas worked/heard from the UK for each of several propagation modes and are a summary of the data presented in the first sections of this Report. On MHz areas refer to the number of beacons reported via Es and F-layer, on 5 MHz the number of countries via Es, F-layer, Aurora and Auroral E. F critical frequencies from Chilton in Oxfordshire became again from 1 June after a several-month absence. SIDC spots are from SIDC, and other solar data from the joint USAF/NOAA daily summaries or directly from SEC. Energetic Events There were no energetic (x-ray) events of X or M class, and only 13 C-class flares. Q-indices from Sodankylä, Finland (Thanks to Vaïno, OHLX) Finnish observatories in June : Monthly averages Most disturbed day: Sodankylä: monthly Ak average = 1. Sodankylä: 9 June, Ak = Nurmijärvi: monthly Ak average = 9. Nurmijärvi: 9 June, Ak = Most of June was magnetically quiet with no storms and many quiet days (11-13 th, -5 th ) as the data from Finland (above) and the UK (next page) illustrates. Q-indices for May another geomagnetically quiet month - are also shown above for comparison. 1 Sun Mag: Sunspot and Magnetic data compiled by Neil Clarke GCAS.

K-indices. There were just a single disturbed day in June (15 th ) when the planetary Kp index was 5. None of the UK K indices reached 5 uinits, and on several days maximum K was only 1 or. The following four tables present the Kp index (from SEC) and the Lerwick ( KL ), Eskdalemuir ( KE ), and Hartland ( KH ) K-indices (from the British Geological Survey). Each table is set out with the day of the month in the top row followed by rows containing the K-values or each 3-hour period. The bottom row of each table is the sum of the K-values for the day.

5 MHz Outside Britain Compilation and Commentary by G3USF Continental Europe. Auroral-Related Modes. Few reports this month, for two reasons. Chiefly, low geomagnetic activity, with 1 the highest daily Ap figure. Even Sodankyla returned an average daily reading of 1., with Nurmij at 9. and the highest day at each, the 9 th, recording and respectively. Additionally, SKMPI, the 1MHz beacon that OH5YI monitors for his auroral reports, encountered problems, leading to a db power reduction.

The vast majority of the huge number of contacts (hence the late arrival of this report), were attributable to sporadic-e or Es scatter. F-layer reflection was very sparse, as were references to meteor scatter or tropo - though GAEV earlier provided evidence of some goodish extended tropo. Es was present every day, frequently before 5UTC and usually continuing until after 1. The Es table below displays a similar pattern to that provided earlier by GAEV. However, with the whole continent to draw on, there are naturally fewer periods when nothing was reported. (Entries marked '?' indicate that the propagation mode was uncertain, especially early morning reception of weak signals from OH beacons in Poland, where tropo could be a possible mode.) The few days when Es apparently continued right through the night were all late in the month, when there may well have been solar illumination at E-layer height, especially at high latitudes. Relating to continental Europe as a whole, these results would not hold true for any specific location. And while most operators enjoyed many hours of Es, on some days, such as the 3 rd, 1 th or 17 th openings were brief, scattered or very localized. The poor showings early in the month, discussed by GAEV, held broadly true across the continent - though the th was prolific in contacts and Es went up to 1MHz. By contrast, on the 1 th, 15 th and the 3 rd to the 9 th, there were particularly high volumes of contacts. Ultra-short skip appears to have been fairly infrequent. By contrast, many reports seemingly required a double hop within Europe - GM<>SV or G<>5B/OD/TA are cases in point, as were some contacts with Ukraine. What can be achieved by multiple hops is of course limited by activity patterns and geography. Stations genuinely located in Russia or Hungary are now less uncommon but nevertheless remain few in number, with vast spaces of double (or triple) hop territory with no operators. Little was heard of the Caucasian republics, though L7AZ was reported into PA on the 3 rd and G on the 5 th, plus 5B on the 3 th, with YA1D into OH on the th. A was reported from RN, OZ and 9A on the 1 st and from UR,I,S5 and 9A on the th, while near-neighbour A was into 9H,SV and I9 on the nd, 9A and SV on the th, EA,F,I,SV and 9H on the 1 th and OH,ON and OZ on the 3 rd. As happens in most years there were several openings to Japan: a brief one to UR on the 19 th, a better one on the 3 rd reaching DL,ES,OH,SV,UR,X,5B and 9H, and more limited ones to UR and 5B on the th, 5B on the th and one on the 3 th reported only from I and SP.

Africa was represented almost daily by 7XAD and 7XRO - rarities though unremarkable in propagation terms - as were CN, CT, CT3 and EA. (EA9 was reported only occasionally). All were workable with a single hop from much of Europe, though northern Europe to EA would require a second hop.

Of the scattering of stations from elsewhere in Africa STDX was outstanding, not only working along the Mediterranean but making multihop contacts with northern Europe on several days. Again, we can reflect on what might have been achieved had there been more operators at that sort of range. Propagation from West Africa, never a great feature of June results, was extremely patchy, with no sustained or widespread openings. Westward, the picture brightens, despite grumbles about a poor season. W/VE/VO were heard or worked in Europe on fifteen days (+++ in the table). Western Europe, where the skip falls more readily, was as usual most favoured, though several openings also stretched along the Mediterranean, exceptionally to W1<>5B and W1<>SV9 on the 7 th, the best day. (On the same evening W1s also contacted 7XAD.) As is the way with sporadic-e some openings were sharply focussed, with working from/to W1 when VE1/9 had no propagation - unusually, relatively little was heard of VE1YX this year. By contrast, VO featured relatively strongly, with several reports of the VO1ZA beacon. The VEBY beacon made one of its occasional appearances on the th, as usual without any QSOs resulting. One report credits auroral-e, the other makes no comment. (I tend to agree GAEV's assessment that multihop Es looks the more probable mode.) The best openings, which extended briefly to the mid-west, were clustered close to the summer solstice. The Six and Ten Report, June Section, 5MHz Outside of Britain, page of 3

The best opening, on the 7 th, reached SV, enabling SV1DH to add yet another new country to his remarkable tally, and beyond him to 5B, necessitating at least Es hops. J79KV was reported only once from EA and not at all from CT. However, 9YAT did work CT on the 7 th. Given J79KV's success one wonders why other Caribbean stations known to be active during this period - CO, HI, KP, FG, FJ, FM - were not heard more frequently or widely. The answer may lie in 'KV's skill at reading the propagation (and the fact that many local operators had a living to earn!).
