Re: [IRCA] Solar Storm

[neilkaz <neilkaz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This must have disappated somewhat by now as is common except for very severe AU.

Honestly last night on the south Double KAZ Antenna was better than this for LA's. Fun to have my almost alone dominant on 910 by R. Metropolitana from Havana, but it was the same last night and might be a regular occurance as all domestics on 910 seem to be behaving.

Several weeks ago, I had Cadena Agremont on 910, but perhaps they are off, or perhaps Havana was off then. Is the big Venezuelan still operating on 910? I'd expect it. Last night had a different game with a pelota than did Rebelde which was carrying Cuban football. Back null of this antenna was good enough to have Rebelde on 620 equal to big pest WTMJ.

I suspect tomorrow for the first hour or two after sunset could be quite stunning.
