[OKDXA] 10 meter contest conditions

This year - for the 10 meter contest - might be the best conditions for some
time (declining sunspot activity). 

Solar forecasts are much the same as weather forecasts - unreliable at best.
I suggest you tune your 10 meter radio and call CQ as much as possible this
weekend, you never know what will happen unless you try.

Expect the unexpected!

Has anyone seen any last minute forecasts or predictions for the solar
conditions for this weekend?  Sure hope they improve as the 10 meter contest
is one of my favorite contests of the year (along with the IARU contest).
Right now the SSN is 43 and the flux is 96.  If they stay like that, I might
be glued to the Army-Navy game on Saturday instead.
