Subject: [OKDXA] Sun's next 11-year cycle could be 50 pct stronger
Message-ID: <!&!AAAAAAAAAAAYAAAAAAAAANTFQRfkZoBJsh3GklLLYzXCgAAAEAAAAKRJyCNwdDtPluYD/iBsTYIBAAAAAA==@cox.net>

Sure would be nice if this comes to pass.

By Deborah Zabarenko 
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Sun-spawned cosmic storms that can play havoc with
earthly power grids and orbiting satellites could be 50 percent stronger in
the next 11-year solar cycle than in the last one, scientists said on
Monday. 
Using a new model that takes into account what happens under the sun's
surface and data about previous solar cycles, astronomers offered a
long-range forecast for solar activity that could start as soon as this year
or as late as 2008. 
They offered no specific predictions of solar storms, but they hope to
formulate early warnings that will give power companies, satellite operators
and others on and around Earth a few days to prepare. 
"This prediction of an active solar cycle suggests we're potentially looking
at more communications disruptions, more satellite failures, possible
disruptions of electrical grids and blackouts, more dangerous conditions for
astronauts," said Richard Behnke of the Upper Atmosphere Research Section at
the National Science Foundation. 
"Predicting and understanding space weather will soon be even more vital
than ever before," Behnke said at a telephone news briefing. 
The prediction, roughly analogous to the early prediction of a severe
hurricane season on Earth, involves the number of sunspots on the solar
surface, phenomena that have been monitored for more than a century. 
TWISTED MAGNETIC FIELDS 
Every 11 years or so, the sun goes through an active period, with lots of
sunspots. This is important, since solar storms -- linked to twisted
magnetic fields that can hurl out energetic particles -- tend to occur near
sunspots. 
The sun is in a relatively quiet period now, but is expected to get more
active soon, scientists said. However, there is disagreement as to whether
the active period will start within months -- late 2006 or early 2007 -- or
years, with the first signs in late 2007 or early 2008. 
Whenever it begins, the new forecasting method shows sunspot activity is
likely to be 30 percent to 50 percent stronger than the last active period.
The peak of the last cycle was in 2001, the researchers said, but the period
of activity can span much of a decade. 
The strongest solar cycle in recent memory occurred in the late 1950s, when
there were few satellites aloft, no astronauts in orbit and less reliance on
electrical power grids than there is now. 
If a similarly active period occurred now, the impact would be hard to
predict, according to Joseph Kunches of the National Oceanic & Atmospheric
Administration's Space Environment Center in Colorado. 
"It's pretty uncertain what would happen, which makes this work more
relevant," Kunches said. 
"What we have here is a prediction that the cycle is going to be very
active, and what we need and what we're of course working on is to be able
to predict individual storms with a couple days or hours in advance so the
grids can take the action," Behnke said.

John,

Agree with the frog.  Mike, The Coax Man, in Mustang is hard to beat and I'm sure he will be at Green Country Hamfest in Claremore.  However, since you are in Lawton, you might not make it to GC.  I do recommend that you call him though.  He also has a toll free number:  1-866-745-9473

Hi John,

Thanks for the kind words. I also finished first in U.S. for the CQWWCW 2004
contest in the 15 meter only category. The 2004/05 contest season was good
to me, hi.

I enjoyed the OKQP as a rover this year covering 20 counties. Had a driver
the first day but went solo on Sunday. It was very interesting and saw, for
the first time, the hills of eastern OK.

73,

Bert  K2BA

   10+ rovers seemed to have kept a large out of state crowd busy with Qs
   and  coverage of all 77 counties.  One California op missed a complete
   sweep  of  OK  counties by 1 - McCurtain.  There are a number of other
   out  of  state  stations  reporting  70+ counties worked.  Good job in

     Greetings all,

     I  thoroughly  enjoyed my time chasing each of you all last weekend
     in the OKQP.  Never, outside of our OQP have I had so much activity
     in  a qso party event.  I actually put in just over 10 hours in the
     contest and got a surprisingly good score too.

     In the beginning, I planned on running 3 logsheets all weekend, for
     the IDQP, OKQP and WIQP.  However, not a soul was heard in the IDQP
     Saturday,  so  I used their 2 logsheets in yours.  Only after 1700z
     Sunday  did  I  hear any IDQP, and a few seeking WI to no avail.  I
     did not expect so much activity form OK.  Surprise!!!

     By  Sunday  I  was  on  a  roll,  skipping the ProII back and forth
     between  20  cw  and  20 ssb, every 5 minutes or so, sometimes also
     snooping  on  40.   Ran  LP  on 40 and usually 500 watts on 20, not
     taking  time  to retune the AL-811H which was running 500 watts.  A
     few times I forgot to switch the amp on after being on 40 for a qso
     or  two.   The 3 element T?-3jr was parked on OK, with the director
     sagging 30 degrees, un 30 feet of tower.  The bug misbehaved in the
     last hour or more.
     I was worried for W5LE who developed a strong chirp on cw, near the
     end of the contest and fortunately his rig did not quit.

     I can guarantee you I will be back for the full duration next year,
     as  I don't know how many counties I missed during my prime absence
     of 2200z Saturday and 0300z Sunday.

     A  note re the absence.  Many have heard about JOTA, or Jamboree On
     The  Air  for  Scouts and Guides which happens mid-October.  I have
     been  the  ham  coordinator  for  the  largest  ever  contingent of
     Canadian  Scouts  assembled  under  canvas  for the full weekend to
     participate  in  JOTA.   5  ham stations are set up in 5 sub-camps,
     running  both  HF and IRLP.  I have taken the tribander now up here
     twice  and  30 feet of tower.  The rest use dipoles and vhf arrays.
     We  have  cold weather including 2 hailstorms 2 years ago, and rain
     and  snow  all  weekend  last October.  Hams are sheltered from the
     rain but not from the cold and wind.  Brrrrr.  Numbers.....2003 saw
     488  camping,  2004  it  peaked at 518, and last year was 375 under
     very  foul  wx.   Camped  at Mosport Park and racetrack, beside the
     track which is active both days and noisy too.

     Go  to:  www  webshots  dot  com ( replace the dot with . and put a
     period between www and webshots ) and seek VE3CRU to see my earlier
     rovering  in  the white Chev Venture with no roof racks, setting up
     antennas  at  4 grids alone.  Then the Rovermobile, a Toyota Sienna
     with  roof  racks  and  a Ham 4 rotator on top for obvious reasons.
     Also  some  microwave  shots.  The big horn rig is 40 mw on 10 gigs
     wbfm  and I set a new ground path VE record with it the first qso I
     made.   You  may also see the 5 mw 24 gig wbfm rig too.  Now have 5
     watts ssb/cw on 10 gigs.

     Thanks  for  so  much  fun,  and for taking the time to read all of
     this.   The  Ontario  QSO  Party is April 15-16 from noon your time
     Saturday to noon your time Sunday.

Jerry et al, I can check 9 cards if his forms are filled out correctly. We 
(card checkers) always appreciate hearing from the
submitter so we can get it right the first time. You wouldn't believe 
the.......oh never mind.   hi   73,  Ross K5RH

[OKDXA] Card Checking at Green Country






A bit late to be asking but will one or more of our card checkers be at 
Green Country?  I had an inquiry yesterday from one of the members about 
having 9 or so cards looked at.

Thanks Ross - I let Bob K5EYT know.  Sounds like K8FU has 25 or so also to 
be looked at.
Hope to see you at the fest.

Jerry:

I have Jim Richardson on the phone and he said he is not coming to Green
Country this year.  He had committed to help with communications for the OKC
St. Patrick's Day Parade tomorrow.

much green on him at the parade!

Got mine in today.  New country on 15m and SSB.  I have previously worked
and confirmed KP2A/KP5 on 20cw and 10 cw.
Would have loved to get KP5 on 80 meters.  Need only 11 more on that band
for 5BDXCC.

Subject: [OKDXA] Shack Computer For Sale
Message-ID: <034a01c64eb4$454075d0$6401a8c0@uf197aba377a64>

Do you need a computer for the shack?  I have an extra one that is old 
technology but works great for the internet, email, or shack software.  It 
is a Compaq Pentium II 300 Mhz machine with 198 Meg of RAM and a 4 Gigabit 
Hard Drive.  It has a DVD, CDRW, 2 USB's, D-Link Ethernet Adpter, phone line 
modem, and all the usual ports.  It comes with a large, very good, Nokia 17 
inch color monitor.  I formated the hard drive to clean it up and reloaded
Windows 98 which I upgraded to 98 Second Edition.  You can see it run when 
you pick it up.

Price $75.

Let me know if you can use it; otherwise it goes to Goodwill.
