Welcome to my repository Home Assistant - Custom Component for HAM Radio Propagation connected to the hamqsl.com and kc2g.com API.

Click on the button below to automatically navigate to the repository within HACS:

Alternatively, follow the steps below:

1. Go to HACS "Integrations >" section
2. In the lower right click + Explore & Download repositories
3. Search for "HAM Radio" and add it
4. Restart Home Assistant.

• Using the tool of choice open the directory (folder) for your HA configuration (where you find configuration.yaml).
• If you do not have a custom_components directory (folder) there, you need to create it.
• In the custom_components directory (folder) create a new folder called ham_radio_propagation.
• Download file ham_radio_propagation.zip from the latest release section in this repository.
• Extract all files from this archive you downloaded in the directory (folder) you created.
• Restart Home Assistant.

Click on the button below to add the integration:

Alternatively, follow the steps below:

1. Install this integration.

2. Navigate to the Home Assistant Integrations page (Settings --> Devices & Services)

3. Click the + ADD INTEGRATION button in the lower right-hand corner

4. Search for HAM

   

5. Select if you want to start the configuration through

   • Solar Data
   • MUF from ionosonde data

   

6. If your choice is MUF option you can select a Station from the dropdown list. Select the station nearest your location for best result.

   

You can do this steps as many times as you want and configure multiple MUF Station in the same Integration

You can go in the Device page and at the bottom click ADD TO DASHBOARD
