User Guide

Basic Workflow

1. Open WSPR Matrix.
2. Select or enter the reporter callsign and UTC date.
3. Choose Path 1 and Path 2 destination areas using continent, city, and radius.
4. Import saved WSPRnet files, or collect data through the app where available.
5. Build the matrix.
6. Choose the counting mode: Raw Spots, Unique Beacons Per Bin, or Cumulative Unique Beacons.
7. Review the path matrices and the all-destinations matrix.
8. Export CSV or print/save PDF from the browser.

Counting Modes

Raw Spots counts every imported report row.

Unique Beacons Per Bin counts each beacon callsign once within each 30-minute band/destination cell.

Cumulative Unique Beacons counts each beacon callsign once across the UTC day and shows the running total by time bin.

Important Notes

• Leave WSPRnet Unique unchecked when exporting source data.
• Blank cells mean no matching observed reports in the imported data, not proof that propagation was closed.
• Endpoint radius controls which beacon grids are included in each path area.
