Ref: Bad Sun Spot activity...
We had a bad flurry of sunspot activity on top of
a bad decade of shortwave reception..these things
come and go..but, we've had a double-whammy the past
few years. We're in one of the projected down cycles..
and are due to come out of it...assuming things go
as in the past.

something, did they change frequencies for the season?
