COMMENT: The Australian ionosphere was mostly normal over the 
UT day. MUFs were near predicted monthly values or slightly enhanced 
(overnight). HF conditions were fair-normal with the exception 
of the Antarctic region which saw some significant degradation 
as a result of enhanced high latitude activity. Range Spread-F 
was again observed in the S.Aus/NZ region overnight as well as 
isolated sporadic-E at mid-latitudes. Expect mostly normal HF 
conditions and MUFs near predicted monthly values 18 Jun. Some 
minor depressions possible 19-20 Jun and continuing poor ionospheric 
support in Antarctic regions.
