What grid square is the QL92 operating area?

QL92 is the live DXRadar reference square for the QL92 operating area. The exact portable or home QTH may vary within the square, but this page tracks the center of QL92 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 QL92 right now?

QL92 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 19:13 UTC

Sunset 07:22 UTC from QL92

From the QL92 operating area, work the 19:13 UTC and 07:22 UTC grayline windows: probe 20m, 30m, and 40m in the 15 minutes either side while the terminator crosses QL92.

Best band now

10m

Night operation should keep 20m on watch and move to 40m as the path darkens.

● Best DX Windows from QL92 — the QL92 operating area

Great-circle distance, short-path beam heading, the bands most likely open right now from QL92 to each DX region at SFI 105 / Kp 0.67, 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 QL92

A planning heuristic for the local day at QL92, built from sunrise 19:13 UTC, sunset 07:22 UTC, SFI 105, and Kp 0.67. Not a measurement — a starting point for where to listen as the day turns.

Dawn grayline

Spots touching QL92 and the adjacent squares

These are the newest 10m, 15m, and 20m reports where one side of the path sits in QL92, QL93, QL91, RL02, QL82. This gives the page unique, local context instead of a generic solar snapshot.

No fresh PSKReporter paths are cached for the immediate QL92 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.
