📡 6m / 2m / 70cm Special Watch

Observed activity matters more than HF-style solar scoring
6m
Watching

The magic band can be quiet for hours and suddenly open. Watch 50.313 FT8, WSPR, PSKReporter, and real reports closely.

2m
Local / Enhanced Watch

Usually local and repeater-oriented. Look for unusual APRS paths, tropo clues, auroral effects, and regional enhancement.

70cm
Local / Line-of-Sight

Usually local or repeater work. Strong observed activity can reveal ducting or special regional conditions.

Future-ready: designed for a later “Notify me when 6m looks open” feature.

🌍 Real-World Propagation Evidence

Prediction + observation + proof

APRS activity helps reveal VHF regional behavior, unusual reach, and real RF movement.

PSKReporter verifies what bands are actually being heard, especially 6m and HF digital activity.

WSPRnet gives weak-signal proof and early propagation clues.
