Seems like big multiple flares from sunspot groups possible from the middle of the suns face so possibly earth directed, if so could be very interesting from an aurora point of view
GOES10 gives X18 solar flare
I was listening on 28mhz at about 1050 when the backround noise increased dramatically, shortly afterwards there was a shortwave fadeout from 3-28 mhz this is still in progress (11.40)

speaking of radio, have a look at www.tvcomm.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/G7IZU_Ra...ges/Radio/index.html

One project I would like to do is set up a permanent meteor radio observatory at some point...
