Propagation predictions for OC-243

Hi everyone.

Now that I’ve returned from ZL9A I’ve had time to look at band condition for OC-243. The propagation predictions show the best times for different parts of the larger amateur populations around the world to work us. The prediction tools used are quite conservative and so you’ll find band conditions are actually better than the times listed below. However it will give you a general idea on the best times and bands to look for us.
