To heck with another ice age... I've only got 2 or 3 more solar maximums left in my lifetime. And I did so well on the last one, with a DX on 52.525Mhz FM from Texas to California. On 4 watts. On a handi-talki.

You don't get that in a sunspot lull

CQ CQ CQ six meters.

Impressive, I was excited to get about 2oo miles on 146.52 on 5w FM.

I agree the lack of spots is due to Global warming, however is not the evil SUV. It has to be Bush's fault. :) KE4HTS

As an avid DXer ( DXCC TOP OF THE HONOR ROLL), I lived for
the sunspot maximums.
Those days, however, are “Gone With the Wind”.
I now consider solar activity as the driving force in any climate changes.

If only the Goreons could find a way to get their money out of the sun, they could leave the rest of us alone.
