Something's happening on the sun: all the sunspots have vanished. Probably some wild left wing plot.

RE: [DX-CHAT] Sun's next 11-year cycle could be 50 pct stronger
1959 was a great year, but does anyone remember the smoothed sunspot number of 201 in March 1958? My high school buddy (K6TNM, SK) told me about his 6M dx every day in chem class, and I didn't even know what a sun spot was! I was working lots of DX, though with 500 watts and a two element yagi.

Here's another: Info from the NASA Solar web page. Tom, WW5L NASA Science News for March 6, 2006 Something's happening on the sun: all the sunspots have vanished. Solar physicists say this is a sign that solar minimum has arrived.
