"yep, used globally depending on the time of day. the other freq. is 11.253 Mhz. A more reliable propagation beacon would be the 2.5,5,10, 15 and 20 MHz international clock you can make out. Series of pips... Long tone starts on the minute" (How does the Quote box work?)

Spot on but volmet is perfect for estimating Propo around UK, i.e. if stations sound a bit weak tuning into Volmet will confirm that it is just conditions rather
than a TX fault. like now with Sunspots, Solar Flares going off etc
