But look on the bright side....I am a ham radio, C.B. radio, and TVDXer. A high sunspot count means fabulous reception from all over the world. I was not around for "The big one" in the late '50's, but you could talk around the globe on a fraction of a watt of power, and you could receive tv stations from Africa, England (on a pal standard tv) and other exotic locales. I can hardly wait!
