sunspots [2013/01/08 19:00] (current)
|
| | ====== Sunspots ====== |
| | |
| | Sunspots are critical to long range Short Wave radio signal propagation. Since this is how most Ham Radio operators communicate, they are critical to me. |
| | |
| | They may have other less significant effects, such as possibly driving extended periods of severe climate change called **Ice Ages** for periods of a few years to a few thousand years, but these are not nearly as important to me as the effect on HF propagation (I can always wear another coat, and living in Florida, I am at a good place to deal with global colding :-) |
