This photo shows me operating from the car some years ago. From this
location in Devon I have worked the USA with QRP SSB on several occasions.

At 0834z my 10m gear was turned on. At 0850z 87 stations had been spotted.
It looks like we could have a good day.
UPDATE 1157z: 456 stations spotted on 10m FT8 RX this morning. Good.

How big will the next sunspot peak be?

One thing is certain, experts do not agree!
In the last few days we have seen quite high solar flux and sunspot numbers
for this part of the cycle. Most predictors suggest the next peak will be
very similar to the last one. It could be smaller, but it could be much bigger. Only time will tell.
See
