It was recently reported that zero sunspots were recorded in August of
this year. However, there must be some charged material up there since
I consistently hear CQ's from Europe in the morning hours and Western
states (and sometime Europe in the afternoons) on 20m. The Maritime
Mobile net is alive and well. I know there's nothing on 10m, which I
believe should be more more utilized in the FM mode with repeaters to
promote local utilization. Otherwise the unlicensed 18 wheeler
transportation industry will take it over for us.

Sunspot are not the only indication of Neutron release just an
indication somewhat under a solar flare where
release includes particles of more than half life such as wreckage/
debris and fumes. The rotation of the poles
ensure fracture of the arbitrary boundary for emmisions of particles
but if the Suns core cools due to the pole shifting
then there is less expansion within the boundary providing less
straying from equilibrium.
Now with the earth heating up scientists say that the sun is
expanding and in a zillion years will
swallow the earth no less, A extra large flare or eruption literally
is a releaso of nuclear energy
which goes to power lines as an impulse similar to the electrical
outage created in
Hawaii when they exploded a hydrogen bomb at low elevation.Which is
why yhe Navy suddenly reverted back to tube technology with radios.
In each of these cases it is the debris composed of more than half
live
nuclear products which does not compare to the miniscule energy of a
unbound electron called a neutrino. However when neutrinos
congregate in bunches they have a large energy input creates by color
binding which when split apart creats an aurora for thousands of miles
which amount s to a lot of energy release within our arbitrary border
which some say provides energy to the upper atmosphere and
provide worldly circulation of weather clouds, storms e.t.c.
Certainly a lot of speculation with regard to the arrival of
particulates the majority of which have not been identified.
