COMMENT: IPS HF Communications Warning 35 was issued on 9 December

and depressions observed for both Northern Aus/Equatorial and
Southern Aus/NZ regions, with otherwise normal HF conditions.
Notable instances of sporadic E also observed for those regions.
Poor ionospheric support for Antarctic regions due to continued
PCA effects. Similar yet improving conditions are expected over
the next 2 days with the proton event expected to finish by 12Dec.
