|------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | The propagation modules VOACAPW.EXE or ICEPACW.EXE cannot be executed | | individually unless you have created the proper formated data input file. | | If you change the ANTENNA card after an EXECUTE card, you MUST use HF_PARSE | | to do the calculations. This is because of how the antenna calculations are | | performed. This problem was discovered in Dec 2008 by Jari Perkiomaki of | | Finland while doing some special analysis. | | If you do not have extra ANTENNA cards, this is not a problem. | |------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Execute with: | | hf_parse.exe directory model inputfile outputfile | | where: | | directory = full pathname to the install directory (e.g. c:\ITSHFBC) | | model = VOACAP or ICEPAC | | | | The input and output files will be in the ..\RUN directory. | | | | You will probably need to also include the full pathname to the EXE file. | | Thus, using the default installation directory: | | | | c:\itshfbc\bin_win\hf_parse.exe c:\itshfbc voacap filein fileout | | | |------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
