of seasonal Sattelite/Solar "white-out" (or whatever it is called)?


ROTFLMAO! :-)


I don't know.... could that occur? Eclipses can occur over the majority
of the Earth's surface, and could you have the thing occur with the GEO
satellite near the position of the eclipse in the sky? A lot of the
radio interference could come from the solar corona, and that's visible
during the eclipse.
