High Frequency Radio Users Guide to AFGWC Products.
Abstract
High Frequency (3-30 Mhz) radio waves used for long range communications networks are at the mercy of natural variations in the earths upper atmosphere, more specifically, the ionosphere. This guide explains these variations and describes various products available from the Air Force Global Weather Central (AFGWC) which can alert the system operator of observed or predicted solar and geophysical activity which can affect HF circuit reliability. The guide is basic and was designed with the field communicator in mind, but contains information of value to circuit managers and supervisors.
