COMMENT: Frequencies at most Australian latitudes near monthly 
medians but northern and equatorial regions depressed at night, 
probably due to remnant geomagnetic activity from earlier in 
the week. Expecting to return to median conditions for the next 
3 days. Small possibility of an SWF from AR1069 which has already 
produced an M1 flare and has potential for more M flares.
