The Stew Perry Topband Distance Challenge has established itself as the
friendly 160 meter contest. While it enjoys strong activity, the band is
slightly less crowded than the major 160 meter contests. This provides
more opportunities for the non super-stations to make intercontinental QSOs.

The Big Stew is coming up later this month!

The Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013 is set to kick in, and with
it will come an extended term of copyright for designer objects, such as
furniture, which will endure for 70 years after the creators death --
meaning that youll need a license to post photographs of your own
belongings.

Britons will need copyright licenses to post photos of their own furniture

The Sun shows signs of life again as new active regions rotate into view.
Expect storm conditions as some more fast wind from a huge coronal hole
passes over Earth by December 11 and expect new flare activity to pick up
this week. We may also get a chance for some Earth-directed solar storms as
these regions have been busy firing storms off while on the backside of the
Sun. Learn more details of the coming activity, catch up on the recent
aurora photos, and see how the Sun will affect you this week.
