Not all that unlike the touching "branes" theory of today.

From the high of the sunspot cycle to the low,
the energy output of the sun only varies by ~0.1%.
There's plenty of "charged material" even when
there are no sun spots.

However, in very recent times, while the Earth was heating up, Martian ice
caps also melted in a most unusual manner as did some other planetary bodies
display signs of heating above normal levels. Increased Solar output? Would
they tell us if it were so? I doubt it.

Anyone remember President Bush's press release in early 2002/3 that the
government has decided that it will not inform "The People" if known
dangerous phenomena concerning Earth and astronomical events were to be
discovered? I do.

Last thing I read is that this last year's cooling wiped
out 100 years of global warming. Since the present cycle
temps peaked 8000 years ago, I suspect we are 8000 years
into the next ice age. Anything we can do to prolong
global warming will be beneficial.

My point: HF still works at the bottom.


You will be astonished when propagation comes back to life. I used to work
Austrailia daily with 5 watts FM into a dipole DFQ.

More than half of my DX cards were from chance contacts while I was
commuting to school. The other half was mostly from ARRL DX QSO parties.
Last Field Day I worked 1 Canadian as my only DX contact. Truly SAD. A
few years back I worked Asia on 50 watts CW and more than 100 DX contacts
despite a continuous pileups from band edge to band edge.

For the interlopers on 10 I suggest regular code practice sessions. Long
CQs from the keyer can help with that too. Rest assured they will be
drummed off when propagation comes back and the bands are full.

For the time being, there are rare opportunities. Learn about the beacons
and DX clusters. Some of us have time on their hands and some don't.

The 10m repeaters make it all the more interesting.

A clear case of combining incomplete bits and pieces and coming up
with utter crap!

Folks, you just plain can't have a meaningful discussion with a
lunatic.

So now we move on to the Higgs field or is it Higgins?

You mean the QRM from co-channel repeaters in Australia, New York, Hawaii,
Virgin Islands, Florida and San Diego on the same PL? Gee, you could trash
a whole band with repeaters just so everyone could have their own kerchunk.

How about remote controlled base stations all over the world accessible at

Now that would provide the scope of argument(s) needed to justify
expanded amateur bands/freqs; you are on the correct path now!

We can't expect much from you but have you been listed in the Guiness
book of records yet?
The thousand upon thousand postings every month and every year ,20,000
i believe in one month
is terrific. Ofourse no time for anything meaningfull or for reading,
just a foot in your mouth comment and off
you go to another group. A terrific show of tenacity and lunacy!
Good luck in the contest assuming that others are doing it in the UK
also
Your friend Art
for a hit and run again
