I'm expecting the pile-ups and QRM on 630 meters to be overwhelming.

Historically solar minimums have been a time of reflection and introspection. They are the universes way of nudging us to open ourselves to different things; to charity, selflessness, service to others in a way that cleanses the body of harmful RF energy. A time to sell all of our ham gear and donate the proceeds to charity. Got ya! Nah, I'm trying to figure out how to replace my 40/80 fan dipoles with yagis and install a phased receive array for 160 to complement my existing inverted L. To accomplish this it would work best to move to a qth with a few more acres and get away from the dang commercial BC antenna 200 yards away. 73, Pete - KW9EOn Jan 27, 2017, at 7:28 AM, Mike Furrey <mikefur...@att.net> wrote: I will do my darnedest to stick around 'till have the sun's life has been reached ... or at least to go fishing with Leroy. 73, Mike WA5POK On Thursday, January 26, 2017 8:27 PM, lmarion <lmar...@mt.net> wrote: When stars reach middle age, half of ~10 billion for our sun,they phase into a state where there are no sunspots for the rest of their hydrogen burning life. So the sunspots cycle ( which is ~22 years by the way, it is based on sunspot polarization, ~11 years is half of the cycle. ), will disappear completely. I did see a sunspot group when I looked at the sun in Hydrogen alpha, so not today. Amateur astronomy and radio are the coolest hobbies, with fishing a close third.

An article in The Economist for Jan. 21 2017 (at page 67) reports that a study of fossilized vegetation from the Permian period about 290 million years ago evidences a solar cycle back then of 10.6 years, easily within the statistical variability around today’s 11.2. Take that, Annie and Walter Maunder.
