Could wreak radio havoc with already poor conditions.

Yep, our WX Guesser said that the Northern Lights could be beautiful on Thursday night!

That won't do much ifor the pending "Oklahoma Land Rush" between 3600 and 3800 starting at one second after midnight tonight.

Maybe W2ZM and I will be able to work each other on ground wave, as we are four miles apart.  We'll stake our claim.  :'(

Will give it a try, Art, but I'm sure I won't know who half the people are with all their 1X1 calls.  But then again, with all those "pretty" northern lights, I may not be able to hear them anyhow.  In any case, I look forward to talking with you from out west in the near future.
