Solar Cycle 25 Update - March 2026 Band Conditions
Noticed some excellent 15m openings this past week! With solar flux holding steady at 158 and sunspot numbers at 125, the higher bands are really performing well. Just worked JA on 20m at noon EST with my simple dipole. As we head deeper into 2026, forecasts suggest we're past the cycle peak but still enjoying good conditions on the higher bands. Anyone else finding 12m open longer than usual lately?
