[Hallicrafters] HHI Nets And CME

[rbethman]

Jim - Et al,

Today is a relatively quiet one with regard to the last CME effects that 
came from the 9 march event.

SOHO and other monitoring equipment ARE projecting a second significant 
CME for the 11th of March.

We are have a very active period of Solar activity.

The Electron Flux hit some darn high levels from the March 9 event.  
Expect similar effects as the 11 March event takes place.

I have an 8" telescope with a Thousand Oaks Solar filter, and an 80mm 
refractor with Baader Solar Filter..
