#H49A DX-pedition on Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands 🇸🇧 is still QRV — loud now on the west coast! Have worked them on 10, 12, 15, 17 and 20m #CW this weekend.

Large filament eruption north of the large southern coronal hole. Possibly earth-directed. We'll have to wait for coronagraph imagery…

A gorgeous eruption (accompanying a coronal wave) associated with an M1.4 flare from AR 14549. The CME may be Earth-bound for 9-Oct arrival. Personal note: I have been hospitalized since 15-Sep. I think the most critical phase has passed, and look forward to come back soon.

SF's neighborhood temperature swings are something you won't see in any other major US city outside California. The city's famous microclimates will be on full display Tuesday, with the Bay Area Model forecasting 85° in Mission and 63° at Ocean Beach, just over 5 miles west.

The Sun is NAKED, spending at least a few hours today without a single sunspot. This has only happened a couple of times since 2021, but will become more common in the next few years (although further strong activity in this period is still likely). This is bad timing, because…

Wrapped up today’s #POTA activation back at US-3409. 20m was very slow and noisy. Used Packtenna end-fed random wire configured as a sloper at 10W. Was lucky to snag a couple 2m simplex QSOs! Pretty compact package for bicycle commuting.

29 in the log doing #POTA with just FM HTs—Baofengs, (2m, 70cm, 1.25m), Alincos (33cm and 23cm), and an ICOM (6m) 🤘 It’s also my 2nd Pack Mule Activation—without a single HF contact 😱 I can’t wait to get to work on the video 🎬 Leave no band behind! #HamRadio

A little tabletop QRP PSK31 setup. Works even into an indoor magnetic loop antenna!
