Good Evening,

    The sun came out about an hour ago, it may hit 60 degrees by 
sunset.  Spring is slowly bringing the forest to life.  The hummingbirds 
need their first refill of the season.  The cool weather has me baking 
bread struggling to get the dough to rise. The stores have been out of 
yeast for the last few months so I've gone over to sour dough.  Now I'm 
eating a lot of bread of improving quality.  My skills were rusty.

   The sun has remained as quiet as it has been for the last two years.  
Any sunspots have been small and short lived.  But there is some local 
magnetic activity with a weakening area in the south Atlantic.  The 
poles may flip in the near future.  Since this occurs regularly every 
500,000 years the timing is rather open ended.  I do know the magnetic 
north pole has been moving quickly the last few years.  Enough so that 
aeronautic maps have been readjusted sooner than normal.  Wonder how a 
pole flip will effect HF propagation?

Please join us on (or near):

14050 kHz at 2200z Sunday (3 PM PDT Sunday)
   7047 kHz at 0000z Monday (5 PM PDT Sunday)

    73,
       Kevin. KD5ONS
