You have to defocus your eyes and stare at it for a while. It looks
like an airplane. :-)

Without my glasses, everything looks like an airplane.

That's not a sunspot. More like a sundot. I wonder if there's a
minimum size to be considered a sunspot?

Sunspot 1002 was there for about that last 2 weeks, but now seems to
have disappeared.

then, I don't have have the magnifiers on ...

Guess I need to get my full wavelength 10m rotatable
dipole in the air, huh? I've been waiting for another
cycle like 1958 when I could work the world on a coat-
hanger hanging off my DX-40.

spots? Spots?!? SPOTS?!?!?! we don't need no stinking spots!

besides those probably will spew more of art's magical mystery particles and
bury my ferromagnetic material antennas under piles of weak force static
neutrinos. or maybe it will give us something more fun to talk about?

Weren't spots 981 and 990 counted as Cycle 24? They were just little burps,
but they were true Cycle 24, I think.

I find http://www.solarcycle24.com/ interesting. Have not tested it for
accuracy, authenticity, etc. (I'm not smart enough.)

You can subscribe and they email blurbs to you once or twice a week. We
may be in for some global cooling (and poor condx).
