Well I don't know but solar physicists think it might me. See this artical on NASA website:
<http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2007/14dec_excitement.htm?list841773> Quoting from the article: "The source of the excitement is a modest knot of magnetism that popped over the sun's eastern limb on Dec. 11th"...." and "Many forecasters believe Solar Cycle 24 will be big and intense. Peaking in 2011 or 2011..." So probably to early to start chase rare DX, but not to early to start planing trips and activities for Solar Max period. And if you're an Elecraft rig owner you'll want to make sure "you got your Mojo working"!
