    I'm not a techie but that looks pretty strange.  My first thought is a hacker playing games just to screw with our minds.  My second thought is I'm glad I loaded 5 - 30 round mags this morning!

    I do hope you mean that you loaded 5 more 30 round mags and not that you're just now getting around to loading any. ;)
     It does look pretty weird, Randy. Could all of those companies in that area be using some infrastructure in common, microwave repeaters or some such?

    Kind different type of corona virus.

    Sun spots at night?  The only non-conspiracy theory I can think of that makes sense is that they all decided to upgrade to 5g at the same time, which seems like a stretch of the imagination. Not notifying your customers of the upgrade is super not cool.

    I saw a report on the news several days ago that suggested there would be/is higher use because folks are staying at home and unless they limit customers band width, there would likely be failures in service. This was about cell phones, cable internet and satellite tv. I haven't noticed any problems as yet. Jim
    This^^^, internet overload from streaming movies. NetFlix  announced they had to reduce streaming quality to 780p.

    Geosynchronous satellites are roughly 22,000 miles above the equator.  The earth is roughly 7,900 miles in diameter.

    There is no reason a satellite would not be effected by the radiation from a solar flare even if the surface directly underneath it was in the dark.  

    Not saying it is what happened, but as there appears to have been sunspot activity last night, it is a possibility.

    Verizon increased my data usage to 15gb, "at no charge," due to increased demand of people wanting to stay informed.

    Also noticed this AM, that Dish network had almost 3 times the amount of free preview channels available for the month. Mainly Cable News outlets and Premium Movie channels.

    It is extremely important to me that I find out about cell phone issues on an internet forum.

    I don't carry my cell phone anymore.  I have it.  I just don't carry it.  People are constantly emailing me and telling me my voicemail is full.  I reply to their email and tell them email is ALWAYS the best way to contact me.
