Good Evening,

    I have been reading forecasts of frigid cold in middle America.  
Being a native of Wisconsin frigid means at least 25 below zero with 
wind chill subtracted from there.  I don't think the news people really 
mean that though.  The predictions have been drifting upward with a 
temperature of 15 degrees (above zero) with light wind.  They must have 
been raised in Florida :)

    The sun has been actively sending ions even without any sunspots.  
Sometime around midweek there will be a stream of solar wind.  Too bad 
those can't hit on Friday morning so the weekend will have a refreshed 
ionosphere.  However, I don't schedule these things.

    On Wednesday I stopped banging on the keyboard and looked up. The 
sky was dark.  I thought I had lost most of the day working when I 
noticed it was only 1 PM.  The cloud layer was so thick I thought it the 
sun was about to set.  When I looked at a satellite photo I found out 
why.  I was under a large stream of water flowing from well out in the 
Pacific directed at the mouth of the Columbia River.  Needless to say it 
has been a very wet week.


Please join us tomorrow on:

14050 kHz at 2200z Sunday  (2 PM PST Sunday)
  7047 kHz at 0000z Monday  (4 PM PST Sunday)

73,
