For WQ6X - Ssb SPRINT is ALL About Space-WX

From one point of view this Blog post could contain nothing more than the opening picture - after all,
it is said that a picture is work 1k words.  However, as I write this, even more storms are ongoing.  More Space-WX reports may be added to this write-up before it is released for publication.
An additional viewpoint is to express my GRATITUDE that this NasTy space weather NONSENSE happened THIS weekend (essentially a non-contest weekend), with a hopeful High-SFI (w/Low A/K) for next weekend's WPX (Weird Prefix) Ssb Contest.

Dismal band conditions found me not particularly excited about running a SPRINT contest; even tho
it is "Only" 4-hours long, it can be as exhaustive as a non-STOP 8-hour shift.  Starting of course on 20-meters, the band was littered with signals, the majority of which were "knee-deep" in atmospheric noise.

The above 3830 Score Submission says it all really.
It would appear that just showing up and screwing around, WQ6X has managed a 1st-place for QRP.  What REALLY matters is that the 4-hour SPRINT served as a "practice exercise" for the upcoming WPX Ssb GiG next weekend.

As promised, there are further Solar-Storm updates.  K-INDEX = 8???  wOw!!
