[Psml] Sun Spot Activity and GPS (Wall St Journal article)

[Barclay M. Thomas]

For those of you who might be interested (ME instructors & VHF  
Seminar presenters especially), here are a couple of links that may  
prove to be of interest. I especially like the sound files on the  
"Radio Sun Introduction" page, a different kind of 'ocean' wave  
washing over you!
Don't forget that when the solar numbers go up, we get more auroral  
displays and they show farther south. Another reason to cruise more  
northerly waters and to stay up late.

Weather Center' as a start): <http://www.nswp.gov/nswp_activity.htm>

Look and enjoy,
