COMMENT: IPS HF Communications Warning 75 was issued on 
29 November and is current for interval 30 November to 
3 December. HF conditions in Australian/NZ regions are 
expected to show minor to mild degradations during the 
next two days- especially in the Southern Australian 
regions. These degradations and possible MUF depressions 
are expected due to a favourably placed conronal hole on 
the solar disk.
