I only see GOOD coming from the enhanced solar activity for 2m and above...:)
6M 'maybe' effected but I didn't have any 6m equipment back during the last 
cycle either.

From what I saw torwards the end of the last cycle, HF would putter out and 
everything 2m and above would become VERY active whenever there was a major 
CME (Coronal Mass Ejection).

I was keeping track of this for a few years because I would give out the 
current conditions each week during the SE Michigan AMSAT net and noticed 
these conditions then. I haven't kept track of it for the past couple of years 
since I haven't done the net for a while.

Just my half pence input.
