That's a great web page, I use it all the time for VHF Propagation.

I've sent it out to alot of ham operators here in my area.

I'm in Midland,TX., and a lot of VHF, and although it's rare...a bit of 800 mhz short skip has been running the past few days.

Yesterday and today both I've heard traffic from Central and South Texas come over Midland's trunk, which is an EDACS system. And earlier today, I heard traffic from Miles County which is in South Central Texas....around 500 miles from us. A bit unusual.

Hearing relatively short skip, like a 100 mi. or so is very common early in the morning, but this recent traffic is much further.
