Upstart Solar Flux (and hopefully propagation) spike...
Good news today!

How could it instantly go up to 90? Is this the predicted number? Jim On Feb 4, Solar flux values forecast by NOAA/USAF were 80 on February 4-8, 78 on February 9-10, then 80, 80, 82, 81, 81, 82 and 88 on February 11-17. So yes, this would appear to either be an error or an unexpected treat. Bruce |

I did hear a few stations on 15 meters this morning but they had $20K+ antenna systems. Unless another sunspot group appears, the sfi will be going down as the existing group is rotating out of sight. Tonight we can get the propagation report from Cuba as Arnie Coro will be on. His forecast is as good as any and he does not have to justify any solar satellite budgets with ridiculous predictions. Jim Jim |
