COMMENT: HF conditions stayed mostly normal on 3 February in 
the Aus/NZ regions with some periods of minor to significant 
MUF enhancements in the Northern regions and minor MUF depressions 
in the Southern regions. Minor to mild degradations in HF conditions 
and MUF depressions in Aus/NZ regions may be possible in this 
region due to the possibility of some rise in geomagnetic activity 
levels on this day. Mostly normal HF conditions may be expected 
on 5 and 6 February.
