Recently, Hamilton has worked with Hamie Carter to develop Cesium JS applications that map properties of the ionoshphere using NOAA data from both the COSMIC-2 satellite constellation and the NOAA Gloctec ionosphere model. These are used by the amateur, (ham), radio community at large. In addition, Hamie and Hamilton use the apps to study how ionospheric conditions effect their contacts, (QSOs), with other hams, having conversed via Morse code with Sweden, Argentina, and Japan from San Francisco using only five Watts of power.
With many industries, including the millitary and high speed stock traders, rekindling an interest in global high frequency radio communications via the ionosphere, Hamilton continues to create applications that make it easier to analyze the feasability of these kinds of communications with respect to geographical location, (both in remote and urban areas), and ionospheric conditions.
In his spare time, Hamilton, the author of a Springer book about functional verification of digital chips, is busy preaparing a book about O.G. Villard, an engineer who experimented with chemically modifying the ionosphere via missile launches to make the F2 layer suitable for nighttime communications; and Michael Gladych a World War II pilot, Boeing personal relations executive, CIA operative, and author of articles about Villard and a number of other individuals who sponsored work that ultimately led to the detectcion of the HIggs boson, the mediator of the gravitational force.
