The North American QSO Party CW event is scheduled for Saturday morning and Cycle 24 has taken a dramatic turn for the better through this week. Will conditions remain stable enough for a fun filled RadioSport weekend?
Currently, I've logged the states of Washington, Oregon, Wyoming, Indiana, and Florida on 30m CW through this week with one Zulu Fox (ZF2) logged on the same wavelength. The Buddipole off center fed dipole continues playing exceptionally well despite my geographically challenged location.
Lastly, I heard for the first time a Victor Uniform (VU2) here in Shell Beach on 30m CW as VU2GSM was into sunrise and an hour or less into my sunset. He wasn't logged however it was a telling propagation moment.
Latest SWPC 3-day Space Weather Forecast: Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels for days one, two, and three (10 Jan, 11 Jan, 12 Jan) with a chance of unsettled levels on day three (12 Jan).
