Propagation may be improving from the sudden dive three days ago.  Conditions were good enough to allow CW and SSB receptions signal peaks.  Both KGØVL and WW8II were Q5 at times at W4DEX allowing quick signal exchanges.  WA9FDO, being more centrally located, seems to be the most consistant copy for most stations on today.  ================================================================
17:30 W4DEX-DEX: K4FI S9

17:31 WW8II-BRUCE: I AM COPYING SEVERAL SSB

17:31 KG0VL-JEFF: WA9FDO 55 now on SSB

17:38 WW8II-BRUCE: W4DEX AT THE END WAS 559

17:38 K4FI-DOUG: KG0VL in the noise

17:38 WW8II-BRUCE: KG0VL START 519

17:39 WW8II-BRUCE: KG0VL QSB BUILDING TO 559

17:39 W4DEX-DEX: KG0VL initially 529 up to 569 at end

17:40 WW8II-BRUCE: KG0VL STILL 559 AT THE END

17:40 KG0VL-JEFF: W4DEX very weak 529 on peaks

17:41 W4DEX-DEX: K4FI 579, 95 mile path not as good as yesterday

17:42 WW8II-BRUCE: K4FI FADE TO 519 AT THE END THEN NOISE

17:42 KG0VL-JEFF: K4FI 519 heard call Q5 several times

17:42 K4FI-DOUG: Barely hear WW8II in noise

17:43 K4FI-DOUG: Copying WW8II some now

17:43 W4DEX-DEX: WW8II 579 and stable, at 510 miles the same signal as from 100 miles

17:43 WA9FDO-MIKE: WW8II - 599 with minor QSB

17:44 KG0VL-JEFF: WW8II from noise level to 529 and back again

17:44 W4DEX-DEX: Slight fade on WW8II at end...still 559

17:46 KG0VL-JEFF: W4DEX just above the noise now on SSB

17:48 WW8II-BRUCE: I COPY W4DEX FROM 55 TO NOISE ON SSB

17:49 W4DEX-DEX: KG0VL and WW8II Q5 SSB on peaks, K5FI S7

17:50 WW8II-BRUCE: I COPY WA9FDO 55

17:51 W4DEX-DEX: WA9FDO Good copy

17:52 WW8II-BRUCE: WA9FDO IS NBOW 59 ON SSB

17:52 K4FI-DOUG: Just heard WA9FDO R3

17:53 KG0VL-JEFF: WA9FDO weak now on SSB

17:54 WW8II-BRUCE: W4DEX WAS 51 AT BEST

17:54 N3EIO-HARRY: HERE WA9FDO 559 AND MAYBE BRUCE VERY WEAK

17:55 W4DEX-DEX: WA9FDO solid 5x7 SSB

17:55 K4DBK-DENNIS: heard Wa9fdo 44 pretty weak but pos id

17:56 W4DEX-DEX: K4DBK 5x5

17:56 WA9FDO-MIKE: Copy K4DBK at about 3-3

17:56 K4DBK-DENNIS: N3eio calling Wa9fdo at 59

17:57 N3EIO-HARRY: HEAR WA9FDO 559

17:57 K4DBK-DENNIS: Wa9fdo response to N3eio was 47

17:58 WA9FDO-MIKE: I hear my call, but unable to tell who calling

18:01 WA9FDO-MIKE: K4DBK at 2-2

18:01 W4DEX-DEX: K4DBK QSO with WA9FDO....both Q5 copy here

18:01 K4DBK-DENNIS: Wa9fdo 44 response

18:01 WW8II-BRUCE: I COPY WA9FDO 59 SSB NO COPY ON K4DBK

18:01 K4DBK-DENNIS: Wa9fdo 2nd response was 55 100% copy

18:01 W4DEX-DEX: Heard N3EIO calling WA9FDO

18:03 WW8II-BRUCE: I COPY SAM 55

18:03 W4DEX-DEX: KA9FTM Q5 S5

18:04 N3EIO-HARRY: HEAR KA9FTM VERY WEAK

18:04 K4DBK-DENNIS: KA9FTM 44 copy

18:04 WW8II-BRUCE: KA9FTM QSB 55 TO FADE TO NOISE

18:04 WA9FDO-MIKE: KA9FTM - 5-9-9

18:05 K4DBK-DENNIS: Wa9fdo 55

18:06 N3EIO-HARRY: MIKE BEST SIGNAL AT MY QTH TODAY

18:07 W4DEX-DEX: Good QSO with KA9FTM

18:08 N3EIO-HARRY: BRUCE JUST CAME OUT OF THE MUD FOR A MOMENT

18:08 WW8II-BRUCE: K4DBK NOW SSB 52

18:10 W4DEX-DEX: N3EIO still Q5 here, not as strong as before

18:11 WW8II-BRUCE: STILL HEARING K4DBK

18:12 W4DEX-DEX: K4DBK now S6, best so far today

18:13 WW8II-BRUCE: W4DEX JUST ABOVE THE NOISE

18:14 K4DBK-DENNIS: W4DEX 57

18:14 K4DBK-DENNIS: WW8II in the noise I think
