I have just checked the source code in program GrndWav3.  It does make use
of CCIR curves and data for refraction over the horizon although I have had
to use some intelligent guesswork to extend to 30 MHz.  It's good to be
reassured I havn't introduced any bugs.

CCIR Recommendation 368-7 contains curves for frequencies from 10kHz up to and including 30MHz.


When available I would be pleased to have some figures of 500 to 2000 km
propagation.

There are indications that at distances over 1000km or so even at daytime some sky wave may be present, disturbing the measurement. The sky wave will be weak of course, but so will be the ground wave.
