14 Feb 2009 News for NTIA/ITS HF Propagation Models (WINDOWS version) 14 Feb 2009 1. This version should only affect REC533. Chris Behm of NTIA/ITS (behm@its.bldrdoc.gov) has been modifying REC533 to add digital modulation calculations. This is in conjuction with the ITU in Geneva. This required some changes in the input GUI, as you will notice an extra input line for Modulation. VOACAP & ICEPAC are not affected. Currently, this only works for the REC533 Point-to-Point model. It is being tested, and eventually, will be added to RECAREA (the area coverage model). Eventually, I will have Chris write some information about it.
