    This is already causing changes in propagation - how's the DX today?

    A big sunspot is emerging over the sun's eastern limb, posing a threat for
    significant solar activity. Already it has unleashed several M-class solar
    flares. One of the eruptions, an M3-flare on June 1st, caused a shortwave
    radio fadeout over Europe. Amateur astronomers with solar telescopes should
    keep an eye on this photogenic sunspot, while shortwave radio listeners
    should be alert for flare-triggered fadeouts and other propagation effects.
