Is this the picture of what has made all my radios sound so bad this
past week?? http://www.coasttocoastam.com/gen/page229.html Waiting

Depends on what bands your using. MW has seen some nice LA and SA openings
due to this aurora.

Very wierd bands tonight. Things were pretty good until 0200PDT then
POOF! The whole place went dead (sans jammers of course).

Hello,
Listening this morning I heard some "risers" that came on very suddenly ,
grew in strength and rose in pitch until there was a complete fade out and
then descended in pitch and faded out with reception returning to what it
had been. Very eerie. I think these are caused by lightening, but I never
heard of risers wiping out everything, so don't know what it was really. It
happened on 6.035 13:30 utc Yunnan BC Station, Kunming China.Later heard
same thing 6.065 13:52 utc R. Tampa, Tokyo .

Behold, Warpcore signaled from keyed 4-1000A filament:

You mean, sounds similar to VLF "whistlers"?

If so, holy tomalies, we have an active ionisphere!

Oh, I forgot to mention a neat phenomenon - when SW goes dead, head for
LF in the NDB band of 200-410KHz and the LowFER band from 160-190KHz...
things are hoppin' like it's mid-winter.

Yeah, wierd. As stated in my other post, things died like someone turned
off a switch. Then a couple of hours later, it was back like a switch
going on :-\

It's called 'H.A.A.R.P.' ;-)
