Beaconmap
is a Win95/98/NT program to help listeners to
identify the beacon stations of the NCDXF/IARU beacon network. The
program displays a flashing dot
at the location of the beacon that is currently transmitting. Thecall
sign of the beacon, as well as the QTH is shown in the status bar.
Select the band by clicking the appropriate TAB control. You don't have
to specify your offset between your local time and UTC. The blue
colored shade indicates the night side of the earth, while the darker
shaded area indicates the region where the ionophere is no longer
struck by sunlight (the virtual height of the ionosphere is set to 300
km) Both regions may give some insight in propagation and changes in
propagation during sunrise or sunset.Change settings by right clicking
the
map..
Installation :
simply unzip the ZIP file into the directory of your choice and
run the exe file from there (set the current working directory to the
directory where the program resides) To remove Beaconmap just throw
away the directory. Beaconmap does not create keys in the Window
Registry nor does it use an .INI file. You don't have to set the offset
between your local time and UTC (Beaconmap works with UTC time) Just
make sure you have selected the correct time zone in your Windows
setup. Also make sure to set your system Clock to within a second
of "real time" Have a look at
these freeware
utilities to get the exact time from the Internet.
