[Elecraft] Space weather

http://www.spaceweather.com/ A very interesting day on SpaceWeather.com. The sun has been and will be very active for the next day or so. The ionosphere is being compressed from the force of the lastest CME. When all of this calms down I'll bet the bands will be in very good condition.

This is very similar to the opening scenes of the movie 2012! And, here it is 2012. The bands may be in good condition but I think Santa Monica is going to slip into the Pacific later this year. After all, movie movie plots are either true or they soon become true. Just look at great movies

It appears 15 meters may have a lot of activity on it. Much of it directly from the sun. Go to www.spaceweather.com to listen to what the sun can do on this band. More X-class flares may land here on Earth in the next few days. Sunspot 1302 is quite active. 73, Kevin. KD5ONS
