DXLook, the real-time HF propagation and reception platform used by amateur radio operators worldwide, has introduced a new feature: Personalized Band Conditions.

This update enhances how operators understand HF propagation by tailoring band condition estimates to each user’s specific grid location. Rather than relying solely on global indices such as SFI, A-index, or K-index, DXLook now provides location-aware predictions that consider geographic position, local time, and atmospheric factors.

“Global space weather numbers are valuable,” said Rodrigo Vazquez, creator of DXLook. “But what matters most to operators is what’s happening right now at their own QTH. Personalized Band Conditions bridge that gap.”

The new system recognizes that propagation can differ greatly between regions — for example, auroral absorption at high latitudes, heavy static noise in tropical zones, or nighttime D-layer changes at mid-latitudes. By factoring in these local influences, DXLook offers more relevant, real-world guidance for operators planning contacts.

The feature is now available on dxlook.com and integrates seamlessly with the existing band condition widget.
