COMMENT: Maximum usable frequencies (MUFs) on UT day 06-Jul in 
the Australian region were generally near predicted monthly values. 
Spread F was occasionally observed during local night hours. 
MUFs are expected to be near predicted monthly values over 07-09 
Jul. Degraded HF conditions may be experienced during local night 
hours over 07-08 Jul due to the anticipated arrival of a CME. 
Mild depressions may be experienced after local dawn on 08-Jul 
for southern Australian region if expected geomagnetic activity 
eventuates on 07-Jul. Isolated minor shortwave fadeouts are possible.
