Good Morning,
After a few cloudy nights I was able to see Venus and Mars last night. Venus popped out soon after sunset but I waited until it was much darker to go outside. I looked above Venus, below Venus, all around the crescent moon but no Mars. Then I looked right next to Venus; there it was, within 1/2 of a degree. It was a very pretty sight.

As I was looking at SpaceWeather to see how the sun is doing I traversed to the sunspot history page. I am very glad we are not in the era around 1800 to 1830 those were some of the worst sunspot totals on record. But they had to wait for telegraphy to be invented before they could think about radio :)

  Please join us this afternoon and evening.

14050 kHz at 2300z Sunday (3 PM PST Sunday)

    73,
        Kevin. KD5ONS
