Good Evening,

    Friday the week long foggy cocoon broke open.  Shadows started to 
form, then the birds came out.  They favored a finely seeded bush 
outside my window.  The normal flock of Oregon juncos was preceded by 
another, smaller bird.  Mostly too quick to follow she paused in a beam 
of light.  I got one field mark in that snapshot.  But her behavior and 
size gave me a hint.  A female Golden-Crowned kinglet is now in my log.

   Our sun has awakened.  A number of sunspot groups are sending flares 
in multiple directions.  One of those hit earth today.  I checked twenty 
meters and found DX stations booming in.  The band wasn't noisy, I had 
expected a steady hiss.  Hopefully it will be clear tonight because 
Oregon may get some aurora.  My native Wisconsin is much closer to the 
magnetic pole, aurora were fairly common.


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,

There's something happening here
But what it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
A-telling me I got to beware

There's battle lines being drawn
And nobody's right if everybody's wrong
