Program to pick radio frequencies.

[Samyham]

Can anyone identify a program that will list frequencies to use based on day or night, weather, etc. Like a weather forecast but will advise which frequencies to use for a given set of circumstances.

There is definitely some software out there that will do it. To get to some basics from the web:

Near-Real-Time MUF Map

Idaho ARES - Current Propagation (OLD)

HF Propagation and Solar-Terrestrial Data Website

Free solar-terrestrial data displayed on your web page or site, updated every 3-hours. Also contains solar and radio propagation information applicable to ham radio including solar conditions, space conditions, online propagation tool, online SN to SFI/SFI to SN conversion tool, online...

The MUF is a good way to see what frequencies might be supported for a given location.
