polomar,

If you really want to get the max out this one - you need to take up amateur radio as another hobby. In this area, 80%+ of the people seriously interested in amateur astronomy are amateur radio operators also
Wow. Well, I'll certainly consider it; thanks for the tip. Spaceweather.com often hosts radio recordings; a gentleman from a nearby city makes recordings from his amateur set of meteor showers (daytime activity), solar flares, etc., which he submits to spaceweather.com.

Yes the sun is currently blank, however, the large Sunspot 10957 (?) will emerge over the Suns eastern limb in a few days time.
Being a Jedi, i sense that it could be a big one...stay tuned....
Thanks for the heads-up and give Obi-Wan my regards.
