The ultimate Source for the HF Planning and HF Frequency Management
Last update of ILG data files: April 5th 5th 2018 (1500 UTC) revised final
REMEMBER
HFCC Database gives only data of ABU/ASBU/HFCC members. Non-Members are NOT listed and therefore these data are only a part of the whole shortwave world. If you feel HFCC is all, you are on the same level, like those people some hundred years ago "the world is a plate"...
ILG database can be used by WPLOT software and includes all shortwave stations, if HFCC, ABU, ASBU or Non-Members. Some "Non-Official" broadcasts of HFCC members which do not give all data to HFCC are also listed in ILG (NOTE FIELD: UNOFFICIALLY). Jamming stations from China, North-Korea, Vietnam and Cuba are also included and these countries have no access to ILG data.
In addition all Military Stations (causing strong interferences to broadcasdting stations) which are operating in many cases illegally in the broadcasting bands are also incuded in ILG Database.
Daily bandscan checks are controlling the whole shortwave range between 2 and 30 MHz and monitoring date is given in the database field MDATE which is empty in original HFCC database.
MDATE data field content: e.g. "280118" monitored the last time on January 28th 2018, ...
