[MRCA] Today's Moose & Squirrel

[Al Klase]

Gang,

Conditions for today's net were a little difficult.  I generally take a 
look at the Australian Government HF site for propagation info:
http://www.ips.gov.au/HF_Systems/6/6/1 (Select New York Radio CARA)

Here's a capture of today's map, 11:00 EDT:

Analysis:

Recommended aircraft band for the region is 6.8 MHz.   So we might have 
been better off on 40M, but it generally close enough for our putposes.

Note the message "SOLAR FLARE IN PROGRESS"

Also note the white dashed lines indicating "no suitable freq or high 
absorption."

 From my point of view, that's exactly what we had.

CLOSE TECHNOWEENIE MODE.

Regards,
Al
