That has been on my mind also. We do having a significant slowing of

current known as the Atlantic Conveyor over the last several years.
That
does not bode well for Europe/England just by itself.

I was looking forward to one more active sunspot cycle before I died
(I'm
a six meter fan), but it doesn't appear that we are going to have one,
if
present trends continue.

Of course, just when you think you have Mother Nature all figured
out -
she comes out of left field with some new phenomenon that catches us
by
surprise. For instance, the Yellowstone super caldera. If that were to
erupt, it would mean an Ice Age for sure. Or would it?


Anyone keeping tabs on the earthquake activity in Yellowstone?

Somewhat. That would definitely bring on an Ice Age, should it have a
full
scale eruption. Never a boring moment.

sigh, like many i've been waiting for the bands to come alive and
start jumping

hopfully it's just a bit of a delay and not a way way long term wait

but i guess the only thing worse then many more years of dead bands
would be for the world to end egads if that happens i can always
do EME but its not the same

I'm with you. I don't want our present civilization to collapse either.

Will the Sun bounce back to normal? Some say it isn't truly abnormal yet.
Me, I don't know the answer, but I'm running out of time, as are we all. I'd
like for this Cycle to come forth and provide we amateur radio ops with some
good six meter propagation. It could happen.
