1. Solar Activity

In the first few days of the week (02-05 Nov), baseline solar activity 
remained below B level, with a few B and C flares from AR 921. Baseline 
activity increased to B2 as a new AR approached the East limb. This AR 
has produced 3 C flares. It is currently being observed by Hinode (with 
a brief excursion to follow the Mercury transit).

How many GOES flares occurred?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were      31     8     0     0
And how many of these are listed in the RHESSI flare list?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were      9     8     0     0
And how many had EXCELLENT coverage?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were       6    2     0     0

There were RHESSI flares/GOES flares          34 /            39
over the time range 02-Nov-06 08-Nov-06


2. Memory Management

Memory has not been a problem.

4. Spacecraft Operations

The decimation was set to normal/active for most of the week, but 
changed to 'Crab Mode' 8-Nov-2006 18:15:44 UT.  This is to cover the 
Mercury transit; an occultation of a flare event during his time 
would "give an alternative perspective on imaging and/or provide a 
confirmation of the roll calibration" (G. Hurford)
