Sunspots and 10m - Mon Oct 5th 2015

With a sunspot number of just 18 (K=3) and 10m propagation expected to remain "poor" we should not expect great things today of the higher HF bands. Any good results on 10m will be a pleasant surprise. So far just spots by local G4IKZ (18km). I am not on 6m today. I shall be on 10m WSPR TX (500mW) all day - ever hopeful! In the past 10m has surprised me with good results when the solar forecasts were "poor". A bit like the UK weather, HI.

UPDATE 1438z:  Well so far today 10m has resulted in just early spots from G4IKZ (18km) and no DX at all so far. It said it would be "poor" and so it has proved so far.
