The HamSphere 40m Help Group


The HamSphere 40m Help Group operates on frequency 7.050.00 every morning from 03.30 UTC/04.30 GMT. The priority of the 40m Help Group is to help new users and old users who may have come back to amateur radio and need to refresh their memories, on the correct procedures of how to operate on the system; such as advising them to download the Users Manual, Rules & Conduct, and the Band Plans. Also any other general queries on HS3 and HS4, i.e. form of payment, how to join a frequency properly with their callsign, find a clear frequency, and how to DX in the proper manner. If you do not hear me on the frequency, I am there monitoring, so just call my callsign M0RCK Robert and I will come back to you. I am also available for general

The plug-in listens in on the NET frequency and automatically populates the participants list and show RX/TX status as well as number of transmissions and total TX length.

The Moderator/Controller = the owner of the Net, can remove participants that for instance can't be heard or do not belong to the net. The Net controllers may also send global messages to the DX Monitor window with for example info about the net.

NETs are added and maintained with the Event Calender plug-in.

NET News



Latest from the India DX Net

India DX Net (a.k.a IDX Net) is into its fourth year of operation on HamSphere. Since its inception on 2nd August 2013, IDX Net has been running on a daily basis on HamSphere 3.0 platform. However, currently we operate 4 days a week primarily on HS3 but we also conduct special sessions on HS4. The objective of IDX Net is to disseminate information regarding both HamSphere 3.0 and 4.0 platforms. It is a discussion net with a global reach. Not only is the net regarded as a source of authentic information pertaining to HamSphere, it also regularly dwells into topics related to HF Radio Propagation, Antennas, Operating practices, Ethics, HF Transceivers, Station equipment setup and various other matters related to Ham Radio. Our strength stems from the vast pool of knowledge-base and collective wisdom of participating Ham Radio operators.

Although the topics discussed on IDX Net are more relevant to HF radio and HamSphere 4.0, we have consciously chosen to run our net mostly on HamSphere 3.0 and occasionally on HamSphere 4.0. This is a deliberate decision since we believe that new operators prefer to start on HS3 to get a better understanding of HF radio before venturing into HamSphere 4.0. Hence we consider it to be our obligation to the HamSphere community to maintain our presence on HS3.

HamSphere 4.0 has always endeavored to provide an excellent and realistic virtual HF communication environment with a carefully modeled propagation platform and real-time updates. The virtual HF antennas on HS4 feature unparalleled performance with ultimate accuracy and uncanny realism when compared to the real world HF antennas. To go a step further, HamSphere has recently updated its propagation model to ensure an even finer experience for operators by adopting URSI coefficients. To leverage the experience and extract maximum mileage from this wonderful setup, it is even more important now for the operators on HS4 to acquire a better understanding of HF propagation. To cater to this need, India DX Net conducts special sessions and on-air workshops to familiarize operators with the finer nuances of HF propagation.

To further bridge the information gap and to assist operators to leverage the fascinating art and science of HF propagation and antenna selection and usage, IDX Net has decided to run a Facebook group which is dedicated to these topics.

The "HamSphere IDX Net - HF Radio" group is an officially recognized and approved HamSphere FB group which is moderated by IDX Net Controller (VU2NSB) who is also an administrator on HamSphere. Here we cover various aspects of HF Propagation, how to find and predict band opening, Ionospheric behavior, influence of Solar Cycle, seasonal and diurnal variations in propagation, which bands to use at what time of the day or seasons, etc. Antenna related topics explain Antenna behavior, variety and types of antennas, their finer points, performance and usage under different conditions. Here we also cover techniques required to optimally use the HF radio transceiver to achieve best on-air performance, and how to work DX and establish communication under difficult and hostile weak-signal band conditions.

To facilitate questions being asked by operators who seek further information, our group page provides the comment section of the pinned post for the purpose. Questions asked via pinned post comments are often translated in to full fledged informative articles.

Those who have not joined "HamSphere IDX Net - HF Radio" Facebook group so far and wish to do so may click on the following group URL to join..

Hamsphere 60 Meter North American net

The net runs Monday through Thursday @ 01:00 UTC on 60 Meter Band @ 5.330 Mhtz. The net is active for 1:30 Minutes with participation by several North American .Central American and Canadian stations due to the propagation patterns on the 60 Meter band.

The days of summer are over and propagation on 60 Meters has returned to North America. Those stations looking to take advantage of this improved propagation, come join in the round table discussion format net at 0:00 UTC. The net will run Monday through Friday on 5.330 Mhz. Again the format will be round table discussion format. During the net, exchange of RS reports will be discouraged until the closing “73” round to enable max round table discussion time. A one on one SR method is recommended.
We look forward to your participation in this activity net. See you on 60 Meters very soon. Check out the new net control module in the Hamsphere store. The module shows all the active participants and more on the scheduled net! There have been some great reviews on the Face Book pages about this module.

News
With the new WAS award being released it would be a good idea if we all checked how our QTH apprears on Hamsphere 3 and Hamsphere 4. This is especially important for USA and Canadian stations.
This can be done under the settings tab here: http://www.hamsphere.com/control.php?0,panel=user

DE KS1K

For those that do not know the frequency is 3.750. For those that need their 25 states to get their 80 Meter Award this is the place to be. Propagation is becoming better now on 80 meters so that will help improve the net for sure.

Remember when you do make contact with a station you need, please try and keep your contacts down to signal reports only and if need be one or two very short messages, we want to move along as quickly as possible to get everybody a chance to work those they may need, stateside and DX alike.

See you all there 73 N8RGO.



The HamSphere Late Night DX-gang


Check out if you have the 'Worked 50 Countries Award' on HamSphere 4.
Once you have this and... You make some contacts between 22:00 UTC and 5:00 UTC, you can become a member of our 'gang'.
Pay attention:
You DON'T have to be QRV every 'night'... but if you want to belong to our crew, you have to try at least once a week.

The 4.0 BC Band News

BC Band News for October 2016

The 48 meter band has been quite active with the usual Radio broadcasters doing their thing day in day out. A few have been trying out new and different formats to attract new listeners. Radio Phly started doing what I like to call ‘Shout Outs ‘. The listener gets a somewhat rush after they post a signal report, after the song is almost finished I then announce their name and where they checked in from. This seems to have spread where we now find other broadcasters following this style. Proper station ID’s should be announced at least every 20 to 30 minutes at most from the live Radio broadcasters so it’s best to wait until you can confirm the proper ID of the broadcast before posting a signal report.

Recently the Automated BC Stations have been relocated around the Globe, we do this at least once a year to keep things intriguing including helping SWL operators determine propagation conditions related to the nearby HF bands. The newly relocated BC-Hundred Stations are as follows starting with the stations ID followed by the name of the station, ending with location and frequency.

BC100, Music One located in Barbados on a frequency of 06.230 MHz.
BC101, BBC Broadcast located off the Coast of Darwin Australia on a frequency of 06.240 MHz.
BC102, AFN Bremerhaven located just off the Weser River in Bremerhaven Germany operating on a frequency of 06.215 MHz.
BC103, PCJ DXers located in the small town of Fitjabraut Iceland just East of Keflavik International Airport on 06.250 MHz.
BC107 ARNL located just between The Honolulu International Airport and the Honolulu Zoo operating on a frequency of 06.285 MHz.
BC109, Radio London located just North of the beautiful Vauxhall Park in London Ontario Canada operating on a frequency of 06.235 MHz.

The Automated BC Stations are subject to changes as far as RF power output including antenna direction and style of antenna used. The best way to keep constant up to date with any changes is through our FaceBook group HamSphere DJing In The BC Band. You can click on the link and request to join us, looking forward having you! And yes you will be able to join live conversation between the broadcasters and listeners in real time.

73 and good SWLing from all the broadcasters including myself Steve at RADIO_PHLY.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/djin.in.the.bc.band/

Here are a few words from other broadcasters:

Radio COOL

Radio_COOL (on 6295 kHz) continues to broadcast a varied format of R&B, Soul, Jazz, Country and more. Whichever format Bill selects for broadcast from Radio_COOL on 6295, you can bet it will be filled with Great "COOLness."
Bill from Radio_COOL says: "Thank You to my loyal followers who continue to send signal reports and cards to Radio_COOL. We are now doing 'Live MIC' broadcasts some of the time from our studio in South Carolina, USA, so we do try to give live shout-outs to those who spot and send signal reports.
