[Glenn KC0SHS]

For those of you in the United States, (perhaps even people outside)
please consider e-mailing a comment about how important the real-time 
solar wind data is to our hobbies and emergency HF comms. This will help 
NOAA insure funding for this.

Solar Wind Comment Period Nears Its End

On April 3, 2006, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 
(NOAA) issued a press release announcing a call for public comment on 
the value of continuing real-time solar wind data, and products derived 
from such data, provided by the Space Environment Center.  Since that 
time, NOAA has received many thoughtful, compelling comments regarding 
this issue.  It is obvious that people put their valuable time and 
effort into expressing themselves, and their input is most appreciated.

There is still time to add your comments, but time is running short.  As 
stated in the April 3 press release, the comment period continues until 
May 18.  All input is important, so, if you haven't voiced your opinion 
yet and would like to, please take the time to do so.  Please send your 
comments to:
