[AMRadio] 40 meters

[Jim Wilhite]

I have a regular contact daily with a station about 100 miles away.  Today he suggested that we might not make the schedule because of a solar flare.

So just after lunch, I tuned from 7.1 to 7.3 and heard only one station very weak that I could not hear well enough to get the call.  I just tuned from 7.0 to 7.3 and heard only two CW signals one IDed while I was listening and he was a 9 station.  Both were very weak and atmospheric noise is high.  

Anyone else's receiver devoid of signals?  I am in Central Oklahoma.
