Big turnout today for the mid day test.  Propagation was fair even though the geomag field was unsettled with an index of K3.  Stations on with contact made by W4DEX were  KW4DE, KP2AE, N2CEI, W4NUS, WB4EZ and AB2UE.

Stations heard by KW4DE and W4DEX were K4DBK (S5 at times), KC2UT (S2), W3HN (S3), W8TB (S1), K3EIO (S1) and N3EIO (S1)  Neither KW4DE at 1KW or W4DEX at 750W could get their attention.

WB4EZ did QSO K4DBK and some of the other stations listed above.
