Comments:

>From bottom flat X-rays the Sun suddenly got active over the weekend, 
and its surface is hosting a sunspot number of 40. There's been a couple 
of near M-class flares, but the overall integral ionizing energy is not 
so high to affect MUF very much... Measured relative RF-energy in the 
shack and decided to run LP while using the temporary 2-el 14 MHz on 
the metal roof straight overhead. Also the Dentron MT-3000A is not able 
to handle HP any more (damaged decks)... As a general rule it seems to 
be good practice to vary the length of coax runs to hi-SWR antennas 
in order to avoid high voltage at the antenna tuner... SWR on the 
vertical is too high for a linear on all bands, but the FT-990 seems 
to handle it on LP... Cheers/73, Zaba OH1ZAA CWops #1856 (LP today).
