I'm surprised that there has been no warning or discussion on NANOG...

There is a high likelihood that things like 802.11, licensed and unlicensed microwave links, and certainly satellite links will sustain interference over the next few days. I assume that everyone on the list is both aware, and prepared ;-)

Oh, perhaps an alternative to paging or cellphone notifications to support folks is a good idea ;-)

Don't expect warnings like this in the future; Congress is likely to drop the Space Environment Center's funding to 0. http://www.arrl.org/news/stories/2003/10/03/3/ Bob
