Today, the daily solar flux index (SFI) has hit 336! This is a sign that we are nearing the solar maximum sometime next year. Also, it means plenty of openings on high HF bands. Plenty of exciting contacts – even for QRP operators running low power into simple antennas.

I can’t think of a better time to get on air – than now. Your investment in a HF transceiver will pay off immediately!
