Handy Shortwave Chart
Bill McFadden


Band allocations and time zone conversions for the USA. Includes broadcast
bands used outside the USA. Also includes WARC-92 broadcast band
extensions, which may be used before April 1, 2007 on a secondary
(non-interference) basis. For multi-use bands, most common usage is shown.
Some stations operate outside the official bands. Information is from Sep
2000 NTIA allocations table, see:
http://www.ntia.doc.gov/osmhome/allochrt.html

Frequencies are in kHz. Usual spacing in shortwave broadcast bands is
5 kHz. Frequencies above 10000 kHz tend to propagate better during the day;
frequencies below 10000 kHz tend to propagate better at night.
