Dunno if anyone else tried the higher HF frequencies today…
Not too clever on 20m and above from G/SP-013 Gun. Found just one contact Stateside on the 15m band, he wasn’t a SOTA chaser though.
Solar storm being mischievous?

Funny you should say that when I was in the pub tonight one of the customers said there was a chance we could see an aurora as the sky was clear.
Nice to work you, Mike, from NW-034 today. Stayed until 13:45 as there was a chance of working Barry on NW-015 or was it 007 but was getting colder and colder so packed up before I froze to the spot. So by the time I’d made to 3-4 mile hike back to the car he’d gone.

Thanks for the S2S, Peter. I managed to work Barry on both summits.
With the persistent wind, it was pretty cold on Gun, too. Glad to get back to the car…

The Auroral oval map that used to be displayed on Spaceweather.com is QRT at the moment, but the link below should give you a good idea if you are likely to see any Aurora at your location.
For those of us not in North America there is a choice of plots for EU, Asia & South Pole at the bottom of the page.
Looks promising for Scotland tonight Andy. I don’t even have to look outside to know it will be too cloudy here in Blackburn Hi!

Hi Rick,
I managed just four contacts on 40m from G/SP-015 The Cloud, this afternoon.

I listened on most of the spotted 40 and 60 metre SSB activations, and on some of the spotted shorter bands, today, as well as tuning up and down 40 metres on a few occasions. I think I just about managed to hear one of the activators at the “there’s a voice there, probably” level…
Hopefully conditions will be bette over the weekend.
