Aaargh!!!!!!
I missed another one!!! I am so completely, utterly frustrated. About 2:00 local time this afternoon I just could not continue to function. I was so totally exhausted I was literally stumbling and had to give up and take a nap. I woke up at 6:00 to discover there HAD been aurora but now the interplanetary magnetic field orientation has turned northward, cutting it off. I hear no sign of beacons or anything else even on 50 MHz.
Aaargh!

Anybody want to buy a complete 50-432 MHz station? I'm kidding! I think.

Hopefully the IMF will turn southward later during the main phase of the storm but the late evening aurora session is rarely much good here.

Darn! I won't be home until 00:30 UT or so. I will check 222.100 MHz when I get back home. Kp is 8 right now.
