Wondering what the sunspot scene is like at the moment. Heard a few days
ago that it was as low as has ever been recorded. Wondering if that is
still the case... Any links would be appreciated.


TIA,

Dave (who loves picking up BBC Africa on 7160 kHz around 0400-0500)

Thank you, RHF. I at first thought this was more than I was looking for,
but upon second glance I see that I has was I was wanting right up front.
My apologies for not seeing that right off. Thanks again,

Dave (who is about holiday'd out *already*)

The best site I've found for solar weather is:

dx.qsl.net and then at the main menu, choose "Propagation".

It has solar indicies, solar wind, solar flux index, SFI and A-index
forecasts, solar flare activity, background x-ray flux levels, real time
auroral activities for both hemispheres, actual SOHO photos of the sun,
gray line map, near real time MUF map and more. Your one-stop solar
weather site.
