Default Upstart Solar Flux (and hopefully propagation) spike...

Good news today!


2100 by VE1DX *SFI=90, A=5, K=1, No Storms - No Storms
1800 by VE1DX *SFI=82, A=4, K=0, No Storms - No Storms
1500 by VE7CC *SFI=82, A=4, K=1, No Storms - No Storms


Where is he getting this data? 82 sounds correct. How could it
instantly go up to 90? Is this the predicted number?


Jim


On Feb 4, Solar flux values forecast by NOAA/USAF were 80 on February
4-8, 78 on February 9-10, then 80, 80, 82, 81, 81, 82 and 88 on
February 11-17. *So yes, this would appear to either be an error or an
unexpected treat.

I did not see anything on the sun to justify that number. I did hear a
few stations on 15 meters this morning but they had $20K+ antenna
systems. Unless another sunspot group appears, the sfi will be going
down as the existing group is rotating out of sight.

Tonight we can get the propagation report from Cuba as Arnie Coro will
be on. His forecast is as good as any and he does not have to justify
any solar satellite budgets with ridiculous predictions.

Well, this just sucks generally...
