Comment: This article describes an interesting and fascinating method to predict ionospheric conditions in real time for active contesters seeking to boost their scores. Unlike conventional propagation programs that use software or satellite-based readings, this new propagation tool uses something called "HF Ionospheric Interferometry" which mimics the PolSAR sampling methods used by NASA . Try out this new program and see if it helps you in the next contest. For the latest Amateur Radio news and information, please visit these websites: http://www.HawaiiARRL.info. http

Real Time Band Conditions Website (http://www.southgatearc.org/news/2016/june/realtime-band-conditions-website). Accessed on 20 June 2016, 03:43 hrs, UTC. Source:  http://www.southgatearc.org. Comment: Most radio amateurs that pursue DX, contests, and special events have a variety of propagation tools to help them find the best bands and operating times. Here is another propagation tool that is simple to understand and easy to use...no complicated mathematical analysis or predictive tools are needed to get the status of propagation in your area. According to the website, "The information is not based on any software predictions or any kind of satellite based readings."  The tool uses an ionospheric sounding method called "HF Ionospheric Interferometry", which is similar to  the PolSAR system used by NASA.
