Sporadic E

Irregular scattered patches of relatively dense ionization that develop seasonally within the E region and that reflec­t and scatter frequencies up to 150 MHz. Note 1: The sporadic E is a regular day­time occurrence over the equatorial regions and is common in the temper­ate latitudes in late spring, early summer and, to a lesser degree, in early winter. Note 2: At high, i.e., polar, latitudes, sporadic E can accompany auroras and associated disturbed magnetic conditions. Note 3: The sporadic E can sometimes support reflec­tions for distances up to 1000 miles or more at frequencies up to 150 MHz

I got some nice 6-meter DX contacts with yesterday's sporadic E.

jesuits

The popular name for the monastic order called the Society of Jesus. The order was founded by Ignatius de Loyola in 1534, and was recognized by the pope in 1540. The mission of the Jesuits was in three areas: teaching, service to the nobility, and missionary work in foreign lands. Their greatest mark was made in education, and the Collegio Romano was their primary seminary.
