[RTTY] BARTG

[Gary AL9A]

Just got up this morning at 1430 UTC (0630 local) to walk the dogs and the 
sky is alive with brilliant Aurora displays arcing from North to Southeast. 
Very visible despite the gradual light in the east from the pending sunrise. 
Just turned on the radio and the bands here are wall to wall dead - nada. 
Looks like I get a free Sunday to do the XYL's chores.  If I didn't know 
better I'd think it was a conspiracy of some kind!

73,
Gary AL9A

The CME pretty much has put a damper on my single band 15 effort. However, I 
was able to work K4GMH this morning on the scatter path to the SSE. I'm also 
hearing EM0I on the southeast scatter path, but he's not hearing me.

Hopefully 15 will recover, but the forecast says not likely.

73, Don AA5AU
