REGISTRATION INFORMATION
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
PLEASE NOTE
Shipping charges must be applied for those of you who are ordering this
software on disk. If you are ordering the software directly from us, read
the file "ORDERS.DOC". If you have already obtained the software through a
BBS, a friend, or anonymous FTP and are not directly ordering the software,
shipping charges do not apply. The following is strictly registration
information for the BCAST software package. Consult the file "ORDERS.DOC"
for explicit ordering and pricing information for this and other software.
WHY REGISTER?
Registering with the Solar Terrestrial Dispatch has a number of
advantages. First, registering gives you full access to the BCAST program
and access to future updates. You are entitled to access the high resolution
solar GIF images either through FTP or on our computer BBS system. You are
entitled to full access of our BBS which gives you access to additional
forecasts and archives of data which are not available elsewhere. In
addition, those who have registered with us will be given special priviledges
and discounts on future major software releases.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF A MAJOR SOFTWARE PACKAGE UNDER DEVELOPMENT
At the present time, we are in the process of developing a software
package which will use the database generated by BCAST to produce forecasts
of auroral activity, HF propagation conditions, geomagnetic activity, etc,
for any particular region. It will also graphically analyze signal path
trajectories and their proximity to various zones of importance, as well as
the orientation of the signal path with respect to the highly influential
geomagnetic field. It is also intended to produce impact assessments and
graphically illustrate the behavior of the various zones of activity and
their potential influence on such things as auroral activity visibility and
radio signal communications. Many other features are planned to be
incorporated into this major software package for PC's and compatibles. This
software package is planned to be constructed so that anyone may operate it
easily without requiring professional knowledge or formal education in a
related discipline. It is intended to be a user-friendly software package
providing radio communicators, amateur astronomers and other interested
persons with the necessary tools to produce forecasts for any area of the
world and to analyze current or historical activity. The use of the database
of daily solar geophysical data generated and maintained by the BCAST
software package will provide all of the necessary information required to
produce these regionalized forecasts. This software package is presently
under development.
Those of you who are registered with us will be given special
priviledges and discounts on this major software package, when it is
released.
