Title: BARTG RTTY -- conditions? Post by: VA7CPC on March 17, 2013, 11:25:52 AM I've had reasonable results from this contest in the past.
Yesterday and today -- awful ! Few signals on 20m, and most of those are weak. Some 15m activity yesterday, but nothing today. (It's 11:24 local time (PDT) in Vancouver BC, 18:24 GMT). . . . Is it just me? I see the K-index is elevated. If this is "moderate" space weather, I don't want to see anything worse! Thanks -- . Charles Title: RE: BARTG RTTY -- conditions?

It is the PITS !!!! Signals weak as heck IF they are there at all. We are experiencing the effects of a CME that hit the earths magnetic field around 0600z this morning. A Index is at 10 and K Index is at 6...Major magnetic storm. Me thinks it is time for a nice Sunday snooze with my terrier. She LOVES afternoon naps. Title: RE: BARTG RTTY -- conditions?
