COMMENT: IPS SWF HF Communications Warning 61 was issued on 17 
December and is current for 18-20 Dec. MUFs were near predicted 
to enhanced over the UT day 17 December. Isolated cases of sporadic 
E were observed in the eastern Australian regions. Near monthly 
predicted MUFs to slightly enhanced values are expected for the 
next 2 days. Expect near predicted values with periods of depressed 
conditions on 20 December due an increase in geomagnetic activity.
