COMMENT: Periods of minor degradations may be observed in the 
southern Australian regions during 7-8 August as the geo-magnetic 
activity is expected to show slight increase due to coronal hole 
activity. Short wave fadeouts may be observed during the next 
3 days mainly due to expected activities on region 63(N17E73) 
and region 57(S08W66).
