Greetings All:

An X-class (biggest) solar flare occurred this morning at about
0830UTC

from Mike, G3XDV

A second flare event a 1338 utc has occurred a few minutes ago, the
magnitude is unknown as yet.

I have the RX on and will check every hour for DCF39 using a new resonant
loop antenna I have just put up two days ago.  It is tuned to 138.83.  If
DCF39 goes way up I will switch resonant plug ins to 137.77 and start
phoning those for whom I have phone numbers.  The new antenna has cut
Loran-C interference way down, I have a hard time seeing Loran-C lines on
the screen now.
