Just a quick heads up about a project which I kicked off a couple of weeks ago. Goal is to understand/study HF Propagation by analyzing data derived from the NCDXF International Beacon Project based on data analytics powered by Grafana and InfluxDB.

My beacon monitor runs 24/7. Antenna is a EFHW vert., RX is a Flexradio 6600. Software Faros 1.4 to capture the data to a local txt file which then gets uploaded to the InfluxDB. This data is then used to build the dashboards in Grafana.

Here is the link to the Beacon Dashboard https://cutt.ly/mjtT9JT

Some might find this useful. Open for ideas.

In the meantime I have added an interactive Solar Indices dashboard collecting solar data points over a long period of time to correlate with the International Beacon Project.
