Stewart, F G

The computer program is an integrated system of subroutines designed to predict high-frequency (HF) skywave system performance and analyze ionospheric parameters. These computer-aided predictions may be used in the planning and operation of high-frequency communication systems using skywaves. The product consists of 4 5 1/4 inch diskettes containing 26 files: 12 Binary data files (1 for each month of the year); 8 binary-link modules (containing IONCAP compile modules); 3 Binary link modules (containing link execute module and the associated library files); 1 batch command file (for linking IONCAP program); 1 ASCII file (controls the execution of IONCAP); 1 ASCII file (for IONCAP output computations and may be routed to the printer). Software Description: The program is written in the FORTRAN programming language for implementation on an IBM PC-XT microcomputer using the DOS operating system. Memory requirement is 512K.
