Description

TropoDX is the ultimate real-time tropospheric propagation monitoring tool for amateur radio operators worldwide.

FEATURES:

Real-time Tropospheric Index (0-100 scale) based on atmospheric conditions

5-day propagation forecast with hourly updates

Regional propagation maps for Europe, North America (East/West), Asia, and Australia/Pacific

Push notifications for excellent DX conditions (Index 80+)

Advanced atmospheric parameters: K-Index, Refractivity, Temperature-Dew Point spread

Location-based weather data from anywhere in the world

Detailed DX distance estimates based on current conditions

Historical data tracking (last 48 readings)

Support for both Metric and Imperial units

Works on iPhone and iPad with landscape support

PERFECT FOR:

VHF DXers (2m, 6m bands)

UHF DXers (70cm band)

Contest operators

EME operators checking for optimal conditions

Anyone interested in VHF/UHF propagation

UNDERSTANDING THE INDEX:

0-40: Poor - Normal conditions, local contacts only

40-55: Fair - Slightly enhanced propagation

55-70: Good - DX possible, 200-500 km range

70-85: Very Good - Strong DX, 500-1000 km range

85-100: Excellent - Extreme conditions, 1000+ km possible!

The app calculates tropospheric conditions using atmospheric pressure, temperature, humidity, dew point, and refractivity to predict VHF/UHF radio wave propagation. When high-pressure systems create temperature inversions, radio signals can travel much farther than normal - and TropoDX helps you catch those moments!

DATA SOURCES:

Real-time weather data from OpenWeatherMap

Regional propagation maps from DX Info Centre

Scientific calculations based on radio refractivity formulas

Whether you're chasing grid squares, working DX contests, or just curious about propagation, TropoDX gives you the information you need to maximize your VHF/UHF operating.

73 and happy DXing!
