Shortwave Radiogram
Program 356
------------------------------------------------------------
Hello friends

As I type this, I am hearing what the meteorologists on the radio refer to "an occasional rumble of thunder." I'm sure it won't last, on this otherwise beautiful day. Days such as this, not too hot with low humidity, can be counted my fingers. Hot and humid days will be much more plentiful

Much of the USA and Canada has been experiencing wild and even dangerous weather. Not much happened here in Arlington, Virginia, where we generally don't have weather, except for the heat and humidity. Although a few nights ago, three or four bolts of lightning landed close to our house. My antennas were grounded, but that only provides so much protection. Fortunately, my antennas and my station survived again.

Space weather continues to be interesting. Last week, there were no major disruptions to Shortwave Radiogram reception. Let's hope the ionosphere and phenomena affecting it cooperate for this week's program 356.

A video of last week's Shortwave Radiogram (program 355) is provided by Scott in Ontario (https://swradiogram.us19.list-manage.com/track/click?u=43fc8ba8977b432a99e9b8d
