1+SQRT(Wr/Wf)
VSWR= _______________
1-SQRT(Wr/Wf)
Where SQRT denotes the square root of (this), Wr is reflected power and
Wf is forward power.

I get 1.329:1 .

The Full Kp Indices for 19 NOV 93 are: 3+ 6- 2- 2o 3- 4- 3- 3o
SYNOPSIS OF ACTIVITY
--------------------
Solar activity was low. Region 7618 (N07W31) remains the
most impressive area on the disk. In white light, the region
has decreased in area and spot number, but still retains its
beta-delta configuration. New Region 7621 (S09E48) was
numbered overnight. An area of interest to watch is on the
east limb at N12 where an impressive bright surge was reported
by Learmonth last night. All other areas/regions were stable.
Solar activity forecast: solar activity is expected to be
low to moderate with Region 7618 the most likely candidate to
produce C and M-class activity. A new, active region may rotate
into view over the next few days and could also contribute to
activity.
STD: X-ray imagery from the Yohkoh satellite showed a fairly
strong and bright loop system at about 02:50 UTC from the
region just beyond the east limb. A Yohkoh full-disk x-ray
image showing the enhanced northeast limb emissions has been
appended to this report.
The geomagnetic field has been at mostly unsettled levels.
Since 09Z, the middle latitude field has been at quiet levels.
Geophysical activity forecast: the geomagnetic field is
expected to be at mostly unsettled levels for the first two
days of the period with active to minor storm conditions
expected early on day three due to a favorably located coronal
hole. The disturbance is expected to last only one day with
levels forecasted to decrease to mostly unsettled thereafter.

B. High Latitudes

HF propagation conditions were near-normal over the low
and middle latitude paths. High and polar latitude paths
experienced additional periods of below-normal propagation due
primarily to periods of enhanced geomagnetic and auroral
activity within the auroral zone. Conditions improved notably
by the end of the day. Propagation conditions are expected to
continue near-normal over the next 48 hours (through about
22 November inclusive). Activity could become gradually
enhanced during the latter half of 22 November. On
23 November, a recurrent coronal hole is expected to increase
levels of geophysical activity to near-storm levels which
is expected to cause below-normal (poor to occasionally very
poor) propagation for transpolar and transauroral paths.
Middle-latitude night-sector paths may also be affected on
22 November.

produced a C2/SF flare at 26/1605Z. Region 7620 (N04W40)
produced a C1 flare at 26/1712Z. All regions appear to be
stable.
Solar activity forecast: solar activity is expected to be
at low levels during the period.
STD: The latest Yohkoh image has been appended to this report.
The geomagnetic field has been at quiet levels for
the past 24 hours. High latitudes reported isolated
undettled levels during the period.
Geophysical activity forecast: the geomagnetic field is
expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels.

In the last message I said that he (ko4rk, aka 44.62.0.122) might not
pick up an Internet message from an .ampr. source. That should have read
a NON-.ampr. source, that is, not from a packet BBS.
Also, there are other REQQTH servers all over the place. This is the only
one I am sure of.
Again, hope this helps.

Subject: Email callbook server
To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
The only E-mail servers I know of are available on packet BBSs. You may
want to try the following (It might work):
send a message to REQQTH@44.62.0.122 and in the SUBJECT of the message,
put the callsign(s) of the station(s) you are looking for, separated
only by spaces. Put nothing in the actual text section.
I'm not sure if he will pick up an Internet message from a .ampr. source,
but it might be worth a shot. You might also try a telnet to
plan9.njit.edu 2000 or mudgate.imsa.edu 2000.
I hope I've answered your question with at least one of the options.

NIR-10 does a really good job for me here in Tallahassee. The recent
firmware upgrade did wonders for it--QRN almost disappears! 73

Subject: Modem Software to Alert Many Pagers?
To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
Our local Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) group needs some software
that could notify all our pager-carrying members when an emergency happens.
Many of our members carry pagers for their jobs, and most of these are
digital pagers. We need an application that would go down a list of pager
phone numbers, dialing each, waiting until the phone is answered, then
sending the TouchTones (r) for "14694". This number would be recognized by
our members as meaning 146.94 MHz, the local ARES repeater frequency.
Has anyone seen an app (for PC or Mac) that can do this? Thank you.
