CQ WW WPX SSB Contest
Valid 0000 UTC Saturday March 26, 2011 through 2359 UTC Sunday March 27, 
2011.

For a more in depth HF/6M frequency radiowave propagation go to section #3b 
and #4 of the NZ4O HF/6M Radiowave Propagation Forecast at 
http://www.solarcycle24.org  .

Note! This forecast is based upon quiet solar, space and geomagnetic weather 
conditions. Geomagnetic storming and energetic proton storms >10 MeV (10+0) 
can at times render the forecast inaccurate.

FORECASTED GLOBAL HF CONDITIONS-
Low Latitude- Normal
Mid Latitude- Normal
High Latitude- Normal

NORTHERN HEMISPHERE 80, 40, 20, 15 METERS-
East -> West To 2000 Mi/3200 km- Good
West -> East To 2000 Mi/3200 km- Good
North -> South To 2000 Mi/3200 km- Good
South -> North To 2000 Mi/3200 km- Good

SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE 80, 40, 20, 15 METERS-
East -> West To 2000 Mi/3200 km- Good
West -> East To 2000 Mi/3200 km- Good
South -> North To 2000 Mi/3200 km- Good
North -> South To 2000 Mi/3200 km- Good


NORTHERN HEMISPHERE 10 METERS-

West -> East To 2000 Mi/3200 km- Fair
North -> South To 2000 Mi/3200 km- Fair
South -> North To 2000 Mi/3200 km- Fair

SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE 10 METERS-

HF Propagation Forecast Scale-
Excellent S9+1 Or Better
Good S7-S9
Fair S4-S6
Poor S1-S3
None S0


HF propagation conditions at greater than of 2000 mi/3200 km in the northern
hemisphere will be good on 80, 40, 20, 15 meters, fair on 10 meters.

HF propagation conditions at greater than 2000 mi/3200 km in the southern
hemisphere will be good on 80, 40, 20, 15 meters, fair on 10 meters.
