Those guys don't know what they are talking about. It was only a C
class flare and I was on the air when it hit yesterday afternoon.
Heard some static for a couple seconds on 40 meters but it did not
cause a radio blackout. In fact I heard there were openings on 6, 10
and 12 meters. Still unsettled on the lower bands but might want to
try just before sunset on the higher bands for some DX.

The VHF is bouncing off aurora.

N-S paths are hot on 20 meters. Just talked to a guy in Buenos Aires
with a wire antenna and 100 watts (both of us) - excellent signals
both ways.

I noticed the same thing, on the trailing gray line. Lots of Cubans,
Brazilians, Argentines, etc.

Not really off topic at all. Meteors do affect the ionosphere.
