Sun spot activities disrupt
radio reception
Disruption in radio communications due to ionospheric disturbance (in the upper- most layer of air) blacked out reception at all news agencies in Hongkong today for almost eight hours from 2.20 am.
During the period, total wash- outs alterniated with short spells of bad reception and occasional clear breaks.
Mr W. C. Gare, Chief En- gineer of Cable & Wireless, said This morning "We are now en- tering the period of ninunum sun spot activities when recep- tion experiences the worst dis- turbances.
"There in an 11-year eyele during which the period of maximun sun spot activities alternates with that of the minimum.

"Another factor that will affect radio reception on earth is the cycle of the sun's rotation around its own axis which takes place every 27 days," he said:
"This will cause recurrent ionusphere storms in the atmo- sphere of the earth every 27 days. The last time It occurred was on October 2."
