This page shows recorded signal strength of a VLF radio station operating on 23.4kHz located in Germany.
Solar (X-ray) flares, amongst other events, can cause changes in the ionosphere which result in enhanced received signal strengths.
This experimental monitoring system uses an active E-field antenna and a Gyrator II receiver. The upper plot shows the complete record starting at 00UTC
The lower plot shows the last 6h of recording.
The plots are updated every 5 minutes.
Radio SkyPipe is used as the charting software.
The GOES satellite X-ray data from NOAA/SWPC is shown for comparison.
