Who should use VOACAP? Is it better than some of the smaller and easier to use prediction programs?
VOACAP is intended for the user wishing to estimate the region of coverage for a frequency, hour and monthly smoothed sunspot number for the period of a month. It is not accurate for a prediction of a single day within the month. There are other models which are more accurate for frequency prediction on a daily basis. They generally take into account solar flares, magnetic disturbances and daily sunspot numbers.
