Hello everyone, here is your daily update on what the Sun is doing:
(Paraphrased from NOAA SWPC's recent forecast discussion)
Low activity, top flare a C3.7 from Region 4551. Region 4557 grew more complex. No Earth-directed CMEs detected. 25% chance of M-class flares.

ALT Two images of the Sun side by side from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, Sunday, October 18. Left, the Sun in visible light with 3 labeled sunspot regions. Right, the Sun in extreme ultraviolet with coronal holes outlined and numbered. Across the top: sunspot number 67, solar flux 132 solar flux units, flare probability C 85%, M 25%, X 5%. At right, NOAA's 3-day Kp forecast as bars colored by level, peaking at Kp 4.67 for 03-06 UT on October 20.

15 Meters is booming in from Europe. I'm on a reset in Tyler, TX, working FT8 and FT4. These are my contacts for the weekend. #Hamradio #Amateurradio
New video! I’m taking Meshtastic on a 50-mile backpacking trip along the Appalachian Trail to see how well off-grid texting actually works. Check it out! 🥾📡 #Meshtastic #Backpacking #AppalachianTrail
Do These 3 Gadgets Actually Belong in My Backpack?

Reports are coming in that a crew member was active as NA1SS on the repeater earlier today. With JOTA taking place this weekend, they may be trying to connect with Scouts on the air.
If you hear NA1SS, please consider giving Scout and other youth stations the first chance to make contact. Let’s help make it a memorable experience for them!
It's an #AmateurRadio #HamRadio Multi-Mode weekend. Early Morning #WSJTX #FT8, then #MorseCode #CW, now #SSTV and later tonight some #RTTY Thanks Harry #KF2N for the #QSO

Today's POTA activation using the KC3LVG antenna mount. He's not doing individual shipping yet but will be at Canton and you could probably get shipping if you get 10 or more guys together on an order. @jcoxpgh
Lots of #WSJTX #FT8 options this morning on 80, 40, 30, 20 and 12 meters. Caught a couple of worldwide #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #JOTA stations

Test the new web interface of #DXSpider at:
webcluster.ea2cw.eus/
Already developing, it's just a demo of the capabilities of the dxspider<>web protocol implemented which allows clients to register, filter, receive and send spots thru a tunnel to the native dxspider #hamr

That M1.3 flare from AR 4551 just now was so unimpressive it's not even worth sharing images of it. lol
