At least two stations stayed operating the 24 hours of the day, and when the conditions were excellent in 15 meters, they operated simultaneously in CW and SSB.

PROPAGATION

Tad Cook, K7VVV, in its weekly predictions on the propagation, points out that the solar flow of last week went almost similar to that of one week before, same as it happened with the activity geomagnetic. It highlights Tad that the index "K" it is a taken stocking of values of thirteen observatories located between 44 and 60 grades North in the South Latitude.

On the spring equinoxe, N4KG says that it will improve the propagation considerably for the polar road in the high bands of 17 and 10 meters during three weeks before and three weeks after the equinoxe. And it considers that the best example is that in America of the North it has been worked 9N7RB during the local morning and in hours of the afternoon in 10 meters, soon after of the exit of the sun and soon after of its decline, wrapping to both poles.

On the other hand he remembers that now we are enjoying the crest of the solar cycle, and it is foreseen that between the months of September of the 2006 and April of the 2007 we are in the lowest in the propagation. These data and others can be in: http://www.sec.noaa.gov/weekly/

It is expected that for next week the solar flow lowers between 165 and 170. In the week the flow solar average was of 180.9 and the index K average 7.9.

According to the presage of Neil's propagation Clarke, G0CAS, the solar flow during the week average was of 176 units. The speed of the solar wind, according to the data of the space ship ISS, was of 280 kilometers per second and it increased at 600.
One has foreseen that the solar activity is of low to moderate, and that the MUFs during the hours of the day will be given in the same latitudes around the 33MHZ for the south and 30MHZ for the north, while when the darkness it will be of 14MHZ.
For this week the roads between America of the South and Europe will have an usable maximum frequency of 50 percent around 36MHZ but with a good frequency with 90 percent of success around 25MHZ and the best moment to prove it will be among 1300-1800z o'clock.
