About Solar Data Widget for Hams

This is a very useful widget for ham radio operators. It provides an overview of the current solar data retrieved every 3 hours from NOAA. The displayed information is a combination of the "Daily Solar Data" and "Geophysical Alert Message" products published by the Space Weather Prediction Center.Only an overview of the solar data is provided and not complete space weather info.

The widget displays the current solar flux (SFI), SESC sunspot number (SSN), and planetary K-index/A-index as well as the observed and predicted space weather storms.

Note: Due to the way Android handles widgets, a device restart is required on some Android 4.0.x devices after widget installation.If the widget does not appear immediately after install, you may try a device restart or try to uninstall it and install it again.

I COULDN'T READ SOME OF THE WORDS on widget itself. DUE TO THERE WAS A MIXED IN THE 2 OR 3 WORDS. I thought it would be a good app. BUT I was WRONG due to this. If the words WEREN'T MIXED TOGETHER I would be using it , would have gave it a better review. And would have NOT UNINSTALLED it.

Nice, simple widget that displays basic propagation numbers. That part is great and would rate 5 stars except for one flaw. This takes up a 4x2 block on the screen when it could probably get by with 3x2, or even less. If they could add an extra widget in a smaller size, I'd rerate this a full five!
