The IPS Advanced Stand Alone Prediction System Lite (ASAPS Lite) software allows the prediction of sky wave communication conditions in the HF (High Frequency) and low VHF (Very High Frequency) radio spectrum or short wave band (1 to 45 MHz). ASAPS Lite provides an elegant interface to the powerful ASAPS propagation kernel, which is based upon a statistical analysis of world-wide ionosonde measurements, an ionospheric model developed by IPS Radio and Space Services of the Australian Bureau of Meteorology and ITU-R / CCIR models (Rec. ITU-R P.533-10, Rec. ITU-R P.372-10 and CCIR Report 322). ASAPS Lite enables the user to quickly generate GRAFEX-style daily frequency plans and area prediction results in graphical form. Professional users should purchase the full version of ASAPS 6 to access additional capabilities.

ASAPS Lite is an application designed to run under Microsoft Windows XP or Windows 7 installed on modern personal computers. The program will run under 32- or 64-bit versions of Windows 7. A minimum of 60 Mega Bytes of hard disk space is required to install and run the program.
