KI0AR

Okay, nothing heard. This is KI0AR net control for the Colorado astronomy net. For those who are north of Denver or maybe even possibly south of Denver, there is some auroral activity going on right now or at least maybe about a half an hour ago. You may want to head outside and see if you can see some of the auroral activity right now if you've got clear skies. Just a note to those who are listening, especially those that are north of 40 degrees north latitude or 39 degrees north latitude saw a little bit of it in the south. Those guys were kind of reddish, which is kind of interesting. You don't see that. I was just wondering. It's a debate whether it's city lights or Aurora, but it is Aurora activity going on right now. So, check that out if you've got clear skies. I'll be announcing that throughout the net as well, so let's see, this net meets every Tuesday night at 7 p.m. Mountain Time, 0200 to discuss topics of astronomical nature, what's up in the night skies for the week, any other special events that may be of interest to the amateur radio astronomy enthusiasts around the world. So this is one of the few nets where your check-in does count. I have the numbers that send them off to JPL at the end of each month. It counts as part of their outreach to the general public, of which we are able. So all check-ins are definitely appreciated. I take check-ins several ways. Of course, I'll take them over the air, but if you have a net logger, I will get you logged in right away when I see your call sign pop up in the AIM. We are also on YouTube tonight, so for the YouTube listeners, if you have a call sign, great. If you donít, thatís fine too. I appreciate everybody listening in on YouTube as well, so welcome over there. welcome over there. Take them over the air. Of course, I'll take them via email, too. You can send an email to KI0AR at KI0AR.com. Just let me know you're out there doing that tonight. A first name, a location, and if you have a call sign, that's great.
