Region 7654 (N08E55) produced two impressive flares last night. The first was an M6/1N which peaked at 16/2325Z. Optical reports indicated a Y-shaped ribbon characteristic with the flare. Radio emission ran from 245Mhz to 15400Mhz to include a 190 sfu tenflare and 2.2E+05 start-to-peak integrated flux from 8800Mhz. A Type II sweep with an estimated shock velocity of 400 km/sec was also reported. The second flare was a C9/1N with weak radio emission in the upper wavelengths. This flare peaked at 17/0919Z. Weaker C-class flaring has occurred since the C9. Region 7654 has shown some growth in past 24 hours while maintaining a relatively complex inversion line. The other spotted Region 7652 (N04E42) has been stable. Solar activity forecast: solar activity is forecast to be low to moderate. Region 7654 should continue to produce C-class and some M-class activity for the foreseeable future. STD: Big Bear reported a strong delta configuration within Region 7654, and bright plage particularly along the magnetic inversion line between the opposite polarities in the delta. This region appears to have potential for additional major flare activity and will be monitored closely. The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to active levels in the middle latitudes for the past 24 hours. High latitudes have been at mostly active levels with some minor storming. Geophysical activity forecast: the geomagnetic field is expected to be mostly unsettled for the next three days. Event probabilities 18 jan-20 jan Class M 60/60/60 Class X 05/05/05 Proton 01/01/01 PCAF Green Geomagnetic activity probabilities 18 jan-20 jan A. Middle Latitudes Active 30/25/20 Minor Storm 10/05/01 Major-Severe Storm 01/01/01 B. High Latitudes Active 30/30/20 Minor Storm 10/05/05 Major-Severe Storm 01/01/01 HF propagation conditions remained unchanged since yesterday. All regions observed generally near-normal propagation, except for high and polar latitude night-sector paths were effects from periods of enhanced geomagnetic and auroral activity produced poor to occasionally very poor propagation. Similar conditions are expected over the next 72 hours. There is also a moderate risk for SWF activity over daylit paths.

I just bought a Ten Tec Omni VI and within a week will have all the optional filters (inluding 1.8khz SSB filter, 500, 250 hz CW filters and the 500 hz narrow filter for the second IF). Will the DSP help in this situation or would it be overkill?

Support Supervisor called me this morning. He discussed the problem with Tokyo, and can't figure out why the fix they made didn't kill all interference. He seems genuinely concerned about it and assures me that this is not typical performance. He is going to have UPS pick the rig up at no expense to me, and they are going to put a priority on getting it fixed right. He suspects there may be a grounding problem, but can't be sure, and doesn't understand how the unit could have gotten past the final checks after the repair. In any case, he says they will make it right. I'll keep you posted. If you are having the same problem (and one person has already contacted me to say they are), give Yaesu/Cerritos CA a call about it, and mention that you have heard about my situation. The additional data may help us all out. These are great radios. Let's make sure they are working to the best of their capabilities. If anyone else has experiences to share about this problem and their conatcs with Yaesu about it, let me know. Thanks.

CD is super! I love it. But I found that (under NT on my DEC Alpha) the fonts used in the Windows GUI front-end to your callsign database were really only marginally readable. The DOS character mode version was much more usable, simply because it was more legible. What's going on? What kind of font did you use and can you fix it in your next release, perhaps? But let me stress for the benefit of those who have not yet seen the QRZ! CD that this really is a minor complaint. The WinHelp wrapper is very good. You've done it again (just as you have with every other CD I've ever bought from you)! A great value. Keep it up!

It's a shareware product available on a lot of BBoards or direct from the author at 10 Cottage Grove Woods, SE, Cedar Rapids, IA 52403 if you send him a formatted diskette and a self-addressed stamped mailer. Suggested registration fee is $20. I found SuperMorse very helpful in getting me started with the basics of learning the characters, though I admit my wife quickly got pretty fed up listening to the sound coming the speaker on my PC, forcing me to do a quickie mod to put in a headphone jack. But I do admit that after a while, it seemed like SM was training me really well to press keys but not so well to actually recognize the sounds of the characters. On the whole, I think the ARRL tapes really have done a better job of pushing me along with a series of drills, each just a little bit faster than the previous. After only a little over a month, I'm now finding that I can pretty comfortably copy up to about 8 wpm on ordinary text and then lose it at about 9 wpm. But each day, it gets a little better. (Still can't do very well on the random character drills, of course, but that's to be expected, I suppose.) Frankly, I didn't really expect to be doing that well so quickly and view that as quite a good testament to the quality of the ARRL tapes. Start with the "Your Introduction to Morse Code" and the "Increasing Your Code Speed: 5 to 10 WPM" tapes. I think you'll be quite pleased with the results.

COUNTDOWN TO PETER 1ST. Hot off the Internet comes the first in a probable series of Peter 1st updates. At dawn on January 12 the first group of operators left from Minnesota and Belgium on the first leg of the trip to Peter 1st. >From London they will fly to Ascension Island and then to the Falklands. Their brief stay at Port Stanley will allow them to operate as VP8BZL on 160, 80, 40 and perhaps 20 meters with CW, SSB and RTTY. Plans are to install satellite and EME systems at the QTH of Mario, VP8ALJ. The entire team plans a February 1 landing on Peter 1st. This operation will be 160 through 10 meters, satellite and EME. THAILAND. Fred, K3ZO, is in Thailand until February 15. He hopes to be active as HS0ZAR from club station HS0AC. Listen for his 40 meter CW between 7015 and 7030 kHz during morning and evening gray line openings. Reiner, DL2VK, is active as HS0/DL2VK until January 31. He favors CW but operates other modes including PacTOR. HS0C was worked from New England on 3505 kHz between 2130 and 2145z. BANGLADESH. Manju, S21AM, was worked 20 meter longpath around 1240z. Manju is a newly licensed Bangladesh national. QSL via PO Box 4000, Dhaka 1000, Bangladesh. WESTERN MALAYSIA.
