By this time next year solar activity will probably be even lower than now, with many days in succession with no visible sunspots. To see what this is
like, go back almost ten years to look at our propagation bulletins in
September 1996. You can find archives of the old bulletins at
<http://www.arrl.org/w1aw/prop/>http://www.arrl.org/w1aw/prop/ and click on
propagation bulletins for 1996. Look at bulletins between 39 and 43 and you
will see weeks of reports such as, sunspot numbers at "0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 and
0, with a mean of 0." These periods of low activity aren't good for the
higher HF bands, but can be great for 160 and 80 meters.
