27 mhz propagation charts

Where could I find one. I know where there is a decent one for vhf but havent found one for 11m.

There are several HF propagation web sites and software listed at HF Propagation - The RadioReference Wiki

Probably because no one really cares enoughy about CB anymore nor the amplifers used to flood the 11 meter band with more useless and often profane and arcane efforts at the expense of intended use - kids, wally world, and benny-drivebn all night truckers.

Who cares about running power. Just want propagation charts to try and understand. Certainly helps when you're running barefoot.

I've checked through some of the sites, and not quite understanding, looking for something simple to understand similar to this. Tropospheric Ducting Forecast for VHF & UHF Radio & TV

You know, something handy to follow to understand when your best chances are for shootin' skip.

I have not seen 11 meter-specific propagation charting or software prediction. Charts for ham radio will work. 10 and 11 meters are close enough that predictions for 10 should work for 11 meter CB.
I like this one here:

Use a 12M or 10M chart. That'll be fine for CB.

Which one would be best thats easily understood?

Turn radio on and listen for crappy skip with people yelling HHHHHEEEELLLLLLLLLOOOOOO! Listen for echo mics. That's a BIG 10-4 buddy!

Heh..yeah I suppose that would work as well. Ive noticed the last few days that the skip can roll in during the day then quiet down for a bit. But then say around 7-8 pm eastern that its much different propagation and almost full scale audible on alot of channels and seems like a better suited time for shooting skip. I'll be able to look more into this in a few weeks when I get the base all setup.

Long distance communications on CB is illegal, therefore no one in their right mind would do such a thing.

Another thing you might try is pskreporter (google it). Set it for 10 meters and see what's out there. It will be a good graphical reference that's updated live as it happens.

You could also try remotehams.com. You can listen at various radios around the world and hear what's going on with whatever band you choose.

Gray line skip? Google is your friend
