So the press is reporting that the region of the sun that caused the geomagnetic storm a week + ago is back and we're looking down the barrel again. There was even a note that HF was black out for the G1 storm that did hit us yesterday. I'm seeing lots of action on 40m right now so I think I might take my QRP radio out for a bike ride and an unofficial park activation. Should be APRS Radio-Active too de N2QFD
Well, turns out that my gelcells were not up to charge. So that means I can't take the TenTec out... Boo... But I did have enough volts for the RockMite. Xtal radios can be fun. Flew a wire in the back yard and copied some CW. Didn't get heard but then again it's .5w on a good day and nothing I'm using has been tested recently. The south was coming in very well as usuall and there was a guy in the mid west calling CQ for POTA around 10.116
