HF Frequency Lists and Decoders
- Please see our Utility Monitoring article for hurricane related HF lists (amateur and other services), as well as DSC and SITOR compatible software. Watch the UDXF and other maritime related HF Yahoo groups for logs. FAX information is also linked there.
- The CAR family of MWARA frequencies should also provide information on diverted flights, as well as occasional use by the Hurricane Hunter aircraft in the past.
- An additional source of logs for National Guard units being deployed is the MT Milcom Blog
- Software is available - some of it free or very low cost - to monitor various HF modes, including digital selective calling. These packages are linked in the Utility Monitoring Central website, in the software page (which can be found in the article above). These are just a few possibilities;
- DSC Decoder
- Frisnit NAVTEX Decoder
- MultiPSK
- MultiMode(Mac software)
- SeaTTY
- SkySweeper
