Ex AR 4366 is back ...

... now as AR 4378. It has weakened significantly in recent days, but will nevertheless boost solar activity again. Behind it comes the old 4368, which will appear on Saturday and currently looks even more potent. (Credit: SDO/NASA) #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - Geomagnetic activity is expected to be mostly quiet to unsettled, with the possibility of further active periods. Three sunspots, low solar activity, i.e., low probability of M-flares (M 10% X 01% Proton 01%). Mostly moderate HF conditions. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - Geomagnetic activity will be mainly quiet to unsettled in the coming days. Low solar activity is likely to persist, with a very low probability of an M flare (M 10% X 01% Proton 01%). We expect moderate to occasionally good HF conditions. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - Currently we have predominantly quiet to unsettled geomagnetic activity, with active to stormy periods when CME effects occur. Solar activity remains low (M 10% X 01% Proton 01%). Mixed HF conditions, no significant change. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

FT2: New Ultra-Fast Digital Mode Tested on HF Italian testers launch FT2: a WSJT-X fork targeting 3.8-second cycles.

FT2 - 2 times faster than FT4, four times faster than FT8 - the next hot shit? www.dxzone.com/ft2-new-ultr... #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - Geomagnetic activity is unsettled to active, with the possibility of further isolated minor G1 storms. Solar activity is low, with little change in sight (M 10% X 01% Proton 01%). Mixed HF conditions. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - Geomagnetic activity is unsettled to active (Kp 3-4), with isolated stormy periods possible due to coronal winds and CME effects. Solar activity is moderate (M2.47 16/0437 UTC) with little chance of further eruptions (M 05% X 01% Proton 01%). #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

On Valentine’s Day a co-rotating interaction region (CIR) hit Earth, causing a G1 geomagnetic storm and bright high-latitude auroras; CIRs form when faster solar wind overtakes slower streams, creating shock-like structures similar to CMEs.

HF #Propagation Report - Geomagnetic activity is expected to be quiet to unsettled, with further active intervals. Solar activity is expected to remain mostly low, with a chance of further isolated M-flares (M 10% X 01% Proton 01%). Mostly moderate HF conditions. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

US stations on 5 MHz

As of FEB 13, 2026, US amateur radio operators have access to a new 15 kHz wide segment in the 60-m band - 5,351.5 to 5,366.5 kHz. The segment is intended for use with a max. permissible power of 9.15 watts ERP (or 15 watts EIRP) and a bandwidth of 2.8 kHz. #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - Geomagnetic activity is quiet to unsettled, but the day (UTC) will start with isolated active phases. Solar activity is low (M 10% X 05 proton 01%), as AR 4366 moves toward the far side of the sun. Moderate, later partly good HF conditions. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - Geomagnetic activity is expected to be quiet to unsettled, with a low probability of further active intervals. The probability of further M-flares decreases during the day as AR4366 slowly disappears (M 15% X 10% Proton 05%). Mainly good condx. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - Apart from active intervals caused by a coronal hole, geomagnetic activity is mostly quiet. Solar activity is moderate, with further M-flares likely, perhaps even a single X-flare (M 65%, X 25%, proton 25%). Moderate to good HF conditions. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - Geomagnetic activity is expected to be mostly quiet to unsettled over the next 72 hrs. Solar activity is moderate, with more M-flares expected, and a possibility of an X-flare from AR4366 (M 65% X 25% Proton 25%). Moderate to good HF conditions. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - Geomagnetic activity is expected to gradually increase to a Kp of 2-4. Solar activity is moderate, with four M-class flares within the last 24 hours. Further flare eruptions are expected (M 65% X 25% Proton 25%). HF conditions are mostly good. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - Geomagnetic activity is quiet, with the possibility of isolated active periods during the night from Saturday to Sunday. Solar activity is low, however with an increased risk of flares (M 80% X 35% Proton 25%). Mostly good HF conditions. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - With geomagnetic activity largely quiet, fast solar winds are causing isolated active intervals. Solar activity is elevated, with numerous M-flares from AR4366. Further M-flares are expected (M 80%, X 35%, Proton 25%). Moderate HF conditions. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

Tonight, geomagnetic conditions could once again become critical due to CME effects. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

Not every sunspot group produces flares (solar eruptions). Only a few produce a single X-flare during their lifetime. This week, the active spot region AR4366 was responsible for six X-flares. What else might be in store? (Credit: solen.info; edited by DF5JL) #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr

HF #Propagation Report - Geomagnetic activity will initially be quiet, later becoming unstable to stormy by CME arrival. Solar activity is high (X1.5 03/1408 UTC). Moderate to high activity is expected to continue (M 80% X 40% Proton 30%). Good HF conditions. #spaceweather #hamradio #hamr
