What grid square is USA operating area?

DN67 is the live DXRadar reference square for USA operating area. The exact portable or home QTH may vary within the square, but this page tracks the center of DN67 for planning propagation.

How do I find my grid square?

Use a Maidenhead grid lookup from your GPS coordinates or street address, then compare that grid with the nearby squares linked on this page. A 4-character grid is enough for most HF planning.

What bands are open in DN67 right now?

DN67 is currently rated POOR. The best bands right now are 10m, 20m, 30m, 40m, 60m, with 10m as the main band to watch first.

Sunrise 12:54 UTC

Sunset 01:10 UTC from DN67

From USA operating area, work the 12:54 UTC and 01:10 UTC grayline windows: probe 20m, 30m, and 40m in the 15 minutes either side while the terminator crosses DN67.

Best band now

10m

After sunset, 20m transitions and 40m becomes the reliable DX fallback from this part of North America.

● Best DX Windows from DN67 — USA operating area

Great-circle distance, short-path beam heading, the bands most likely open right now from DN67 to each DX region at SFI 105 / Kp 2, and a current verdict. "Open now" means a suitable band is scoring well on that path; "Try ~HH:MM" points at the next far-end grayline. Band picks and status are a planning heuristic, not a measurement.

● Band-by-Time Plan for DN67

A planning heuristic for the local day at DN67, built from sunrise 12:54 UTC, sunset 01:10 UTC, SFI 105, and Kp 2. Not a measurement — a starting point for where to listen as the day turns.

Spots touching DN67 and the adjacent squares

These are the newest 10m, 15m, and 20m reports where one side of the path sits in DN67, DN68, DN66, DN77, DN57. This gives the page unique, local context instead of a generic solar snapshot.

No fresh PSKReporter paths are cached for the immediate DN67 footprint right now. That usually means you should widen the search to the nearest regional hubs below or fall back to 20m/40m for the next operating window.
