Sunspots - Tuesday April 9th
Solar flux is 125 and the SSN 79. A=8 and K=2.
At the moment, it looks like numbers are declining. Will we have a second peak?

Sunspots declining?
Sometimes we see a second peak that can be higher than the first, but at the moment it looks like we are on the downward slopes of solar cycle 25. My favourite site for solar data has just been updated.
Conditions should still be good for several years yet.
Sunspots - Monday April 1st
Solar flux is 134 and the SSN 50. A=8 and K=2.
SSN 50? - not too promising? I can remember day after day with SSN=0 and there was still plenty of N-S DX on 10m. With FT8 now, QSOs should be even easier. I worked LU with QRP SSB at the bottom of a solar cycle with just a low dipole. Never give up on the higher HF bands!
