Warren,

There could be some enhancement...not a sure thing. The CME impact did 
not connect as well as it could have, because the interplanetary 
magnetic field was pointing north. Had it been south, then we would have 
really gotten our bell rung.

But on the theory that the D-layer gets turned into a better reflector 
about 2 days after a major event, then we should get some daytime 
enhancement on Sunday. This would be more in the form of extended 
distance coverage, rather than huge signals. When Dex and I did a 
daytime WOLF QSO about 11 years ago with Part 15 setups, it was on the 
advice of Alan Melia, who predicted the enhancement.

Definitely worth a shot.
