NIGERIA. 7254.9, April 21 at 0604, VON again audible at S9-S6,
weaker than usual. Would expect it to propagate from the tropix even
when signals from Europe be outwiped, but this may be relevant for
missing signals the night before, from https://spaceweather.com via

Subject: [WOR] Glenn Hauser log roundup April 16-23, 2020NIGERIA. 7254.9, April 20 at 0555, no signal from VON, and I
believe it was also absent last night. Admittedly propagation is
degraded, little from Europe or even CFRX, K index 3 at 0600. Always
unreliable, but wonder if staying off? How about the other frequency?11769.9, April 20 at 1955, no signal here via UTwente, just heavy
splash from 11775 CRI German. Is anyone hearing VON on either, and how
long since anything definite? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)NIGERIA. 7254.9, April 21 at 0604, VON again audible at S9-S6,

Mike Terry to the WOR io group:``The first geomagnetic storm of 2020 (category G1) took forecasters
by surprise on April 20th when a CME hit Earth's magnetic field,
sparking bright auroras over Canada and some northern-tier US states.
The cause of the storm appears to be a faint slow-moving CME (coronal
mass ejection) that left the sun on April 15th. This CME was not
squarely Earth-directed, and forecasters did not think it was likely
to hit our planet. Nevertheless, it apparently did. Solar wind data
suggest that the CME sideswiped Earth with a snowplow-like buildup of
plasma shortly after 0130 UT on April 20th``Ron Howard, Asilomar State Beach near Monterey, California, also
replies April 20: ``Hi Glenn, My last VON reception was briefly noted
in tuning by on April 16, on 7254.94, at 0554, with African religious
song, in English and vernacular, titled "In The Name Of Jesus"(?);
0557, start of their usual musical IS; strong signal. Ron``And on April 21: ``VON, on 7254.94, checking 0623-0630; heard with
fair-good signal; in vernacular; 0627, brief musical IS and sounded
like COVID-19 PSA. Ron, California`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
