I download my WSPR spots every couple of days and have seen some odd openings in the lists to down south over the last couple of weeks. So it's not entirely news to me.
I'm still getting HF reports from all over the world, mainly 10 and 14 MHz but some on the 18 and 21 MHz bands, all from my measly few watts.
Proves there is still propagation happening...
As a good news P.S., this is from this weekend's WIA News broadcast (( From: WIA NATIONAL NEWS FOR WEEK COMMENCING JULY 14 2019 )) :
"Reversed Polarity Sunspot
A reversed-polarity sunspot has broken through the surface of the sun, the second time this month this has happened. This latest "backwards sunspot" could mark the official beginning of new Solar Cycle 25.
Visit the July 8 edition of Spaceweather.com to learn more about sunspot AR2744 and the transition between solar cycles.
