[Fists] On the air right now around 14.057.5

Tue, 08 Jan 2002 11:11:18 -0800

We had a C7.2 flare at 1725.  And, now there is another one that
has not peaked, looks like another C-class.  Up here surrounded by
the mountains as I am, and in the PNW to boot, those seem to have
degraded my reception.  Most bands are dead at the moment.  Oh,
there *are* signals.  But not like the last few days or so.
