I'm posting this for Dave...

Just a reminder that NK6A (Don) and I, N0IT (Dave in
MO) will be your foxii tonight.

The hunt will begin at 0200z on November 12 (8 pm
Central Nov 11). You are likely to find us somewhere
within plus or minus ten 10 khz of 7040.

At the beginning of the hunt I will be listening up
around 700 hz or higher and will be listening closer
to my frequency as the pileup subsides. As usual the
exchange is RST, State, Name, and Pwr. For more info
see:

I will be using Kenwood TS-940S at 5 watts into my
trusty Butternut HF2V vertical.

Even if conditions stink, come out and join the fun.
HF can often be very unpredictable. See you tonight.

73 de Dave, N0IT

The following information from:

www.dxlc.com/solar

may be of interest to those planning to hunt foxii tonight:

The geomagnetic field was at active to extremely severe storm levels
on November 10. Solar wind speed ranged between 551 and 903 km/sec.
The planetary A index reached the maximum attainable value of 400
for the 06-09h UTC interval, only two days after the last time this
disturbance level was reached. For the 24 hour period starting at
15h UTC on November 9 and ending at 15h UTC on November 10 the
planetary A index was 227 (based on preliminary data). Based on NGDC
data the current geomagnetic storm would rank as number 12 on the
all time list of the most intense geomagnetic storms. The only
recent geomagnetic storm to rank higher is the sixth placed storm
which started on October 28, 2003.

Solar flux measured at 20h UTC on 2.8 GHz was 104.6. The planetary A
index was 181 (STAR Ap - based on the mean of three hour interval ap
indices: 180.9).
Three hour interval K indices: 88997654 (planetary), 77886553
(Boulder).
