VOACAP Online now supports two propagation engines for calculating coverage maps: VOACAP and ITURHFProp. This dual‑engine option is new so you can now compare two different models side by side. All map options, incl. longitudinal midpoint and multiple map projections, are available for both engines.

Fresh update on VOACAP Online HF propagation prediction services: you can now choose your map projection for coverage maps — Cylindrical (default) or Azimuthal Equidistant. Try it now: voacap.com/hf/ See Radio New Zealand’s footprint at 0700 UTC on 9700 kHz, beaming 35° from Rangitaiki.

A fresh update just landed on VOACAP Online for Ham Radio / Marine / SWL: you can now choose your longitudinal midpoint for coverage maps. Until today, every map was locked to 0°, but there’s now a 180° option - finally giving listeners in Australasia and Oceania seamless, wrap‑free coverage views.

Notice #VOACAP Online users: In recent Chrome/Edge browser versions, SVG rendering of thin lines has regressed. VOACAP Online’s propagation wheels may look broken or jagged. Firefox/Safari display them correctly - use those for best results until Chromium fixes this.

A lot of backend refactoring done at #VOACAP online (www.voacap.com/hf) to make the services more robust. Added new visual cues for ITU Wheel predictions: progress is now shown directly in the button w/ light red background color. Each run takes about 5 seconds, so a little patience is appreciated.

It's under some of those special prediction sites such as V6D Micronesia. If you think that azimuthal equidistant maps would be useful on the proper VOACAP Online site, I can add it there as an option. The main world map cannot be changed to that projection at the moment.

Time for the summary sheet for vertical antennas at #VOACAP Online! Ground quality matters—seawater boosts the take-off angles & gain of the verticals. Horizontal antennas (Yagis/dipoles) see little benefit. This sheet shows take-off angles only, not gain. Patterns can’t be compared for gain.

020

OH6BG @voacap.com · 11/03/2025

Struggling to see the take-off angle patterns of antennas in #VOACAP Online? I’ve made contact sheets of take-off angles for all Yagi & dipole antennas at various heights across all ham radio bands! These should give a clearer overview of their behavior. More to come—happy exploring! 5 m or 17 ft.
