Propagation Report from Hannes Coetzee, ZS6BZP22 February, 2009 There is a possibility of 15 m openings towards India from about 14:00 CAT followed by 20 m at 18:00 and 20 m at 18:00. Contacts with New Zealand will be very challenging. 20 m contacts may be possible with Australia at 08:00. Contacts with Peru are highly unlikely. Brazil may be worked on 15 and 20 m from 14:00 and 19:00 respectively. At 16:00 there may be short, weak 15 m openings followed by weak, short 20 m openings at 18:00 towards Europe. Contacts with the USA's East Coast are possible on 15 m from 18:00 followed by 20 m openings from 22:00. 10 MHz looks promising in the late afternoon and after dark - for the CW and digital enthusiasts. Local conditions are going to be good on 40 m during daytime. 80 m may perform well during the early mornings and late afternoons over the shorter distances, e.g. between ZS5 and ZS6. 30 m may perform well during the middle of the day between ZS6 and ZS1. Even 20 m may perform well over the longer distances before morning teatime. 80 m is the frequency of choice in the evenings. With summer still here, the thunderstorms and static discharges may cause conditions to be challenging. Remember that this is only a prediction and that HF can surprise you, but you will never know unless you switch your rig on, listen and also call CQ.
