Re: ULDXIndex - A Suggestion

I am not the best with math but that looks like a good way to rate them. For me, it is all about the best DX possible.

From: "Paul S. in CT" <dxrx@...> To: main@UltralightDX.groups.io Subject: Re: [UltralightDX] ULDXIndex - A Suggestion I have had for many years used a combination of distance and power making a 'points' system. It does not take into account the subjective nature of poor, weak, average, good, or excellant. Sometimes receivong anything readable is good. And sometimes a high-power station might be received poorly/weakly, or just average. So here's the formula...
(Log(500,000)/Log(Power)) squared times the distance (km) As option take the square root of the values and multiply by the points answer above... poor = 1 (1.000), weak = 2 (1.414), average = 3 (1.732), good = 4 (2.000), and excellant = 5 (2.236). Just a suggestion to try out. I think you will find that low power aand high distance to be 'real DX'. Regards Paul S. in CT FN31nl
