I have had some serious intermittent noise issues for the last month. I
think it is a competitor being a dick but...that is just me.

Subject: [Karlnet] Solar Flares..does this sound credible?
I have been fighting an intermittent signal problem for about four weeks
now. I have changed out every bit of hardware, checked and rechecked every
setting (was working fine for months with same settings anyway) to no avail.
Comes on, all clients show low signal, some fall offline...lasts from 5
minutes to 30 minutes then all is well again. Happens at random times but
usually in the evening.
Anyway, I had a friend who works for a company that does a lot of two way
radio repeaters, trunking, etc climb to swap out an amp at the top of a
tower today. He told me they have been having a lot of problems the last
four months with their 800-900mhz trunking systems and they (as well as some
other companies they work with) believe it is due to solar flare activities.
Apparantly some of the largest solar flares ever recorded have been the last
month or so.
Has anyone else seen this sort of problem lately? Does this sound plausible
at all? Just curious as to input from others. Our problem occurred today
and when I checked the solar activity plots they directed me to
(http://solar.sec.noaa.gov/rt_plots/), I did see a spike in activity
coinciding with the time of our problem. (Although I really don't have a
clue what I am looking at, anyone understand this stuff more that can
explain it?)
At any rate, just looking for input. Discuss.
