On that site, on the main dashboard, click the help links for explanations on each reading. For solar satellites you can see them at the bottom of the Solar activity panel at the top. You don't need any special equipment. NOAA, NASA, etc already has you covered as this stuff affects GPS, the energy grid and a million other things so they have lots of eyes on it. The satellites are usually the first to tip people off with good activity. It takes a while to learn to read it, so don't worry! I'll see if I can dig up the good forum posts that have some good explanations in a bit. The community there is amazing and super knowledgeable. If you download their app you can get alerts!
