Hi Bob,

I would go even one step further with that question, and ask, "What happened
to all the *DX* stations on 160?"

The far-off stations have really been conspicuous in their absence on
Topband of late---for days, actually. And those that are there, even the
perennial stalwarts, are way down in signal strength...

To-day both the "A" & "K" indices on WWV were at zero, and there have been
no spots on the face of Ol Sol for days now, which (I think!) is a portend,
generally, of some good conditions on 160-meters...but the reality is
otherwise.

Can it really be time to undust the ol' stamp collection here...?! Hi Hi
