EME prediction for amateur radio: moon windows, path loss and degradation, computed locally

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • PyPIPython’s uv installed (for the uvx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eme": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "eme-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add eme -- uvx eme-mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eme": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "eme-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "eme": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "eme-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is Eme MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.4.0) reached the registry 10 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

eme-mcp

MCP server for EME — Earth-Moon-Earth, moonbounce. When the moon is up from your grid, when it is up from both ends of a schedule at once, what the path costs on 2m, 70cm and 23cm, and which days ahead are least degraded.

Part of the qso-graph project. No network, no authentication.

Why it needs nothing from the network

The moon's position is computed here, from the abridged ELP-2000/82 series as Meeus tabulates it (*Astronomical Algorithms*, chapter 47). That is around 250 lines of standard library and a coefficient table. It is also what WSJT-X does, and the norm for EME software.

That matters for more than tidiness. Moonrise and moonset are different for every grid square, so a service-backed answer means a request per location per query — and a planning tool that stalls, rate-limits, or goes dark when a remote service does.

JPL Horizons is still here — as the test oracle. Recorded Horizons responses are fixtures, so every CI run checks these numbers against NASA's rather than against themselves. Measured against Horizons for a Boise grid:

agreement
Azimuthwithin 0.01°
Elevationwithin 0.003°
Rangewithin 9 km of ~392,000 (0.002%)

Thirty arcseconds, against a 432 MHz array that is degrees wide.

Tools

ToolDescription
eme_moon_windowMoon azimuth, elevation and range from a grid square over time — and, given a second locator, the mutual window when both stations can see it
eme_path_lossOne-way, round-trip and echo path loss on 2m / 70cm / 23cm, or any frequency
eme_degradationHow much worse than perigee this moment is, with the moon's declination
eme_calendarThe least degraded days ahead
get_version_infoService version and the ephemeris series used
What this does not yet do

Sky noise is not included. The full degradation figure an EME operator plans with combines the distance term with the galactic background behind the moon, from the Haslam 408 MHz all-sky map. That map is not yet carried and pinned, so eme_degradation and eme_calendar report the distance term and say so in every answer rather than returning a number that looks complete and is not. Tracked in qso-graph-devel#52.

Elevations are geometric: no atmospheric refraction, which lifts an object near the horizon by about half a degree.

The two path-loss figures

They answer different questions and are often confused, so both are returned:

  • `echo_db` is the one to budget a station with — the radar equation, accounting for the moon reflecting about 6.5% of what reaches it. Near 252 dB on 2m, 262 on 70cm and 271 on 23cm at mean distance, which are the numbers EME operators know.
  • `round_trip_db` is twice the free-space loss. It ignores the moon entirely.
