I am about to give up on watching the solar numbers.  Today the K is 2 the Absorption (A) is 9 and the SFI is 82 with 22 sunspots.  The SFI is higher than it has been in months but the A index is killing propagation.  I think there are too many other variables that will influence working a DX station like which way his beam is pointed, does he even have a beam, how much power is he running.  This is not very scientific it is more by gosh and by golly.  Otherwise known as a SWAG.

73,

Rory, K5CKS
