Subject: [Elecraft] X-class flare
Just a few minutes ago at 0925z there was a massive solar flare.
The burst of X-rays totally turned off the HF bands. It sounds like my
antenna fell down!
Propagation will gradually return during the day, but a sudden event
like this is exciting.
"Region 2673 just produced a major X2.2 solar flare at approximately
09:10 UTC (Sept 6). This is the first X-Class event to be detected since
May 2015. The active region is still in a decent position for Earth
directed eruptions. More updates will be provided should a coronal mass
ejection (CME) be associated. More to follow. Image courtesy of SDO/AIA."
