The solar numbers really haven't changed any. The solar flux is at 128, which is okay for this time of the cycle. And the geomagnetic noise is pretty low. No action, no floor action on the sun right now. And propagation looks good. Both directions 20 meters is the winner right now. There's over 3000 contacts in the 15 minute blocks that I'm looking at going both into the Pacific and over into Europe. A couple of comments. I think probably a lot of you saw the report on the F-18 that crashed up above Rimrock Lake. And turns out that was from V-M-F-A-323, which was my old marine squadron. Back when I was in the squadron back in the 60s, we had F-8E crusaders, a little bit different kind of aircraft. And I'm glad the pilot was able to eject okay. And it wasn't the two person that was single. It wasn't one of the EF-18.
