Propagation today was erratic.  Very good signals on peaks with fast deep fades.  K7TOP's CW was detected by KGØVL (467 miles) and WW8II (755 miles).  WW8II's signal at W4DEX ranged from 589 to undetectable during a 2 min CW transmission.  
===================================================================
17:33 K5HFG: I hear SSB sounds likeW4DEX

17:33 WW8II-BRUCE: I HEAR KG0VL

17:34 KG0VL-JEFF: W4DEX weak SSB QSO 52

17:34 W4DEX-DEX: WA4LDU S7

17:35 W4DEX-DEX: KG0VL Q5 briefly

17:36 W4DEX-DEX: Noise is elevated by less than 1 S-unit....maybe 2 dB

17:36 KG0VL-JEFF: L1 magnetometers higher than normal

17:39 KG0VL-JEFF: https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/goes-magnetometer

17:40 WW8II-BRUCE: KG0VL IS 599+

17:41 WW8II-BRUCE: KG0VL IS SOLID ON BOTH THE SAL AND THE INVERTED V ANTENNAS

17:41 W4DEX-DEX: KG0VL CW 559 initially, increasing to 589 at end of 2 min xmission

17:42 WA4LDU-JOE: KG0VL CW 519 middle to end. not there at first.

17:44 W4DEX-DEX: K5HFG Initially nothing, 329 copy at end of transmission

17:44 KG0VL-JEFF: Heard CW at 1743, assume it was K5HFG. Too weak to copy.

17:44 WW8II-BRUCE: WA4LDU 339

17:45 W4DEX-DEX: WA4LDU 579 no QSB

17:46 KG0VL-JEFF: WA4LDU 519, weak but in for the duration.

17:46 WW8II-BRUCE: W4DEX 559

17:46 WW8II-BRUCE: QSB ON W4DEX 539

17:47 WW8II-BRUCE: W4DEX STILL 539

17:47 WA4LDU-JOE: Dex CW 599 - very little QSB

17:48 KG0VL-JEFF: W4DEX 579 good signal level

17:49 W4DEX-DEX: WW8II Initially 539 then deep fade down to noise floor, back up briefly.

17:49 K5HFG: had very light copy on DEX but it is gone now

17:50 WA4LDU-JOE: WW8II readable starting a 17:49:10 - weak just above the noise

17:50 W4DEX-DEX: WW8II Near end of xmission up to 589! Mucho QSB!

17:50 KG0VL-JEFF: WW8II 579 booming signal

17:51 W4DEX-DEX: I think this is the most QSB I've seen on WW8II

17:53 KG0VL-JEFF: K7TOP now very weak on CW

17:53 WW8II-BRUCE: K7TOP I THINK I DETECT THE SIGNAL

17:54 WW8II-BRUCE: K7TOP IS 755 MILES FROM ME

17:54 KG0VL-JEFF: K7TOP got much louder towards the end of the sequence.

17:55 K7TOP-BARRY:  started at 100W, increased to 600W in the last 30 secs.

17:55 KG0VL-JEFF: That concurs with what I heard Barry.

17:55 WW8II-BRUCE: QUICK SSB QSO WITH KG0VL 55 COPY

17:57 WW8II-BRUCE: I COPY KG0VL LOUD 55 OR BETTER BUT VERY WEAK COPY ON W4DEX IN THE NOISE
