Hi, Antonio,
I regularly note the geomagnetic Kp value when I take part in an FMT
but most of the discussion of this takes place on K5CM's FMT-nuts mail
list (as far as I know). Fortunately, most FMTs have not coincided
with a major storm but there have been a few where some really weird
effects were noted, probably due to "minor" disturbed geomagnetic
conditions.
