Good Evening,

    It was partly sunny and cool all week.  Currently it is windy.  My 
view is much greener.  More flowers but no hummingbirds at the feeder.  
It has stopped snowing so they should show up soon.  The daffodils are 
all open with a few trilliums here and there.

    The ionosphere is still be shaking after the pounding it took from 
yesterday's CME.  A large sunspot group is sending a lot of ions our 
way.  It is not as strong as it was the last time it showed up.  Still 
mixed field groupings but it has lost some of its vigor.  I expect noise 
and QSB to test our mettle.


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

    I was reading about stellarator design when I learned the coordinate 
system of a torus.  One axis is called toroidal while the other is 
called poloidal.  Just in case you ever need to describe an exact point 
on a torus.  Then I thought about how it would work in Scrabble: id - 
oloid - poloid - poloidal  A good, additive series.
