Now the contest news
On 20 July, there are two contests. From 0900 to 1600 is the
RSGBLow Power Field Day for CW on 3.5 and 7MHz. The exchange is
RST, serial number and power. From 1100 to 1500UTC it is the
RSGB 144MHz backpackers Contest with the exchange being RST,
serial number, locator and postal district.
Between 2000 and 2230 local time on 22 July, the RSGB 50MHz
Activity Contest takes place. The exchange is RST, serial number
and locator.
24 July sees the RSGB Data Club Championships from 1900 to 2030.
The exchange is RST and serial number.
Over the weekend of 26 and 27 July, the RSGB IOTA Contest takes
place. The aim of the contest is to promote contacts between
stations in qualifying IOTA island groups and the rest of the
world and to encourage expeditions to IOTA islands.
Operating on the 3.5, 7, 14, 21 and 28MHz bands using CW and
SSB, the IARU band plans should be observed, with CW contacts
being made only in the recognised CW ends of the bands. Contest
preferred segments must be observed. The exchange is RST, serial
number and IOTA reference.
Also over the weekend of 26 and 27 July from 1200 to 1200 is the
IOTA SWL Contest. The aim of the IOTA SWL Contest, held in
parallel with the IOTA Contest, is to promote the interest of
the SWL stations for the Contests and to encourage the SWL
applications to the awards of the IOTA Programme. The IOTA
Programme was established back in 1964 by the late Geoff Watts,
BRS3129, the only SWL ever inducted in the CQ DX Hall of Fame.
Now the solar report for the period from the 7th to the 13th of
July, compiled by Neil Clarke, G0CAS, and Martin Harrison, G3USF.
The solar disc was spotless again every day. Solar activity was
very low. Solar flux levels varied between 65 and 66 units, the
average was 66 units. The 90 day solar flux average on the 13th
was 67 units, that's one unit down on last week. X-ray flux
levels remained below the minimum reporting level for yet
another week.
Geomagnetic activity was quiet at first but during the evening
of the 11th a coronal hole disturbance arrived.
The 12th was the most disturbed day with an Ap index of 21 units
The average was Ap 8 units. The ACE spacecraft saw solar wind
speeds increase from 290 kilometres per second on the 8th to 740
by the 13th.
Particle densities were low except for a brief increase to 15
particles per cubic centimetre during the 11th. Bz varied
between minus and plus 2 nanoTeslas on the quiet days and
between minus 12 and plus 13 nanoTeslas on the 12th.
As expected at solar minimum the main cause of magnetic
disturbances are coronal holes and this as been the case for
the last 6 months. The larger disturbances normally related to
solar flare and the subsequent coronal mass ejections have not
yet took place so far this year. As the Sun rotates in
approximately 27 to 28 days, these coronal holes which can last
for many months can be forecast with a certain amount of
accuracy.
Earlier in the year there were 3 coronal holes this as now
reduced to only two.
The most disturbed days for the last six months have been the
29th of March and 27 days later on the 23rd of April,
illustrating well the solar rotation. The Ap was 31 and 32 units respectively.
While HF conditions had been relatively good up to yesterday,
Saturdayâ€Ös increased geomagnetic levels depressed MUFs by 2 or 3
MHz. VHF aurora occurred early on the 12th, but only a handful
of contacts were reported, all from fairly high latitudes.
Sporadic-E was reported daily, though less frequently at 70MHz
than in recent weeks.
And finally the solar forecast. This week solar activity looks
set to continue at very low levels with no end in sight to the
present lack of activity. If no sudden increase in activity takesplace then solar flux levels should be in the mid to high 60â€Ös
for most of the week. Geomagnetic activity is expected to be
mostly quiet, however, a slightly more active period could take
place around Tuesday and Wednesday from a small coronal hole.
MUFs during daylight hours at equal latitudes should be around
18MHz for the south and 15MHz for the north. The darkness hour
lows should be about 9MHz. Paths this week to South Africa should
have a maximum usable frequency with a 50 per cent success rate
of around 22MHz. The optimum working frequency with a 90 per
cent success rate should be around 16MHz. The best time to try
this path will be between 0800 and 1700 hours UTC. Sporadic-E
should take place on some days with openings up to 70MHz taking
place.
And thatâ€Ös all for this week from the propagation team.
