[MLB-WIRELESS] Solar flares and Wireless

[Michael Carey]

I heard that this solar storm would affect GPS.
At work, we have a GPS reference station belonging to OmniStar in WA.
Lo and behold, I took a screen capture from yesterday. This is from
0000-2359 UTC on October 29.
Check out between 1000 and 1200 UTC. Plus the spike around 0200, I've never
seen a shift like that on this
equipment before. Pretty serious stuff me thinks, I wonder what a normal
domestic GPS did during that time.
Regards,
Michael
