STX ARES HF Net Log For 08/30/2021

Greetings from Laredo!

The following is my log for yesterday’s STX ARES HF Net. Conditions were poor at my QTH, however I wish to thank K7UD, K0YA, WB5HJV, AF5OS among others who were very helpful with relays.

Thank you to those who took pains to check into the net and had the patience to wade through the noise floor. If there are any corrections to be made, send them to me and I’ll correct the log. Good showing from districts 07 and 14!

73,

Typo on my call sign: should be W0PCW of D14 and not N0PCW. Thx!

73, Patrick

KF5WSO should be KF4WSO
Thanks,
Mike KF4WSO

KD8RZA should be WD8RZA in Dist 14. Sheree WM5N


Sunspots located near the sun’s western limb are magnetically connected to Earth. The sun’s magnetic field spirals around like a lawn sprinker–a shape known as the “Parker spiral.” Look at this diagram. Lines of magnetic force coming out of the western limb curve around and touch our planet.
If there is an eruption today while AR2860 is passing through this danger zone, the debris will be funneled back to Earth. The resulting radiation storm could pepper satellites with high-energy protons, fogging cameras and causing reboots of onboard electronics. At such times, shortwave radio propagation can become difficult to impossible. During extreme storms, passengers and crew in commercial aircraft may be exposed to radiation.
