Any reports on whether the G-1 storm has adversely affected HF?


Disrupted the midwest and northeast. 40 meters was great last night.
This morning was terrible. Tried to call a friend in Louisiana this
afternoon and reception was just starting to improve. Maybe it will be
back to normal in time for the Liberty Net.

20m was not bad either last night - I heard a passel of people from
the midwest coming through here in CA like they were next door. That
faded after about 0500.


40 meters seems to be recovering now but a bunch of big storms are
moving in. Three guys in the afternoon net have had to disconnect due
to approaching storms.
