Aurora Reports - Australian National VHF DX Group (ANVDG)

[anonymous]

Radio Aurora has been noted in south east Australia at different times since
the 22nd of July and the latest bout was yesterday 27th July from around 4pm
endintg approx 2.30 am on the 28th.

We are using 144 MHz Amateur Radio on SSB. Signals have been noted from
VK7MO in Hobart to stations as far north as VK2KRR near Wagga NSW, as far
west as VK5DK in Mt Gambier and VK5ZK near Adelaide. VK7MO has also been
observing New Zealand television signals.

Last night was the strongest so far in the session of Geomagnetic activity.

Information is being posted on the ANVDG website at
http://users.bigpond/anvdg/australian_aurora_scatter_studie.htm and
this includes screen captures from Spectrogram and Spectran, showing the
different effectes of the Aurora. Well worth a look.

Thanks go to IPS for keeping us up to date with the current Space Weather.
