[SixClub] Solar Flares and Radio Bursts - How is Ham Radio Impacted?

[KA2AEV at aol.com]

If it does throw off any larger flares it could create Auroral conditions  
on 6
in which case turn your beams North and bounce your sigs off of the  Au
Just another mode of usage
BTW CW is the better mode to use because Au distorts SSB Comms

The way I read it the only effect we will, or rather saw was the  radio 
burst of noise.  The Coronal Mass ejection or (CME) is  supposedly not 
aimed at us.
6-meters is presently open over much of the  US to the East of the 
Mississippi  and from Florida to Michigan and  Ontario.

We will likely see some disturbed conditions on HF some time  in the next 
few days.

I'd have to get the books out for any more  information than that.
