Comments:
I was going to do single-band 15, but got bored with it and hopped over to ten
meters mid-morning Saturday. Ten was a lot more fun - unpredictable and with
less QRM. After a while, I started to feel silly - me a grown 70-year-old man
shouting into a microphone. I decided to pack it in after 1000 Q's and a
million points.
The X1 flare at 1748Z on Saturday was spectacular on the panadapter time
history display. I wish I had thought quickly enough to freeze the display and
take a screen shot. The background noise came up from dark blue to bright
yellow over the entire width of the 10 meter band, then went back down to dark
blue over a 20 second period. Afterwards, signals were much much weaker, but
rebounded after a while.
