The K index was a 4 at 0000z last nite and a 6 at 0900z .  We had

Aurora at 0833Z here

While the rest of you were playing with exotic modes on Monday evening I
was listening to Christer SM6PXJ in QSO with Ron G6RO - around 2030-2100z if
I remember right. Not only was it nice to here Ron after his sad news last
week, but Christer was a steady 589, not much weaker than Ron, and the
strongest I have ever heard him.  They had an excellent chat and exchanged
589 reports and I think they were each surprised at how good signals were.
Whether this is related to the auroral conditions I don't know.

During the QSO Christer remarked that he might have been causing tvi, and as
such couldn't stay to work Uli DJ9IE who called him afterwards. Uli was
weaker than Christer, and I noticed that both he and F6BWO were their normal
signals, so perhaps we were seeing an auroral path from SM.  Perhaps
Christer would like to comment - is this the first reported case of TVI on
lf??
