06 January 2020
Conditions today were more like we saw during the first few weeks in November.  Signals between Michigan to NC and SC area was good except for some deep fades.  And the Iowa to NC and SC area was weak but useable at times.  The Michigan to Iowa path was very strong.   At under 100 miles signals averaged very good with an occasional fade.
  •  KB3KYC running 100 watts was very consistent SSB copy at 347 miles at W4DEX
  •  KB3KYC was also very good at WW8II,  286 miles.  
Another active solar region just appeared today.  It will be interesting to see what this does for propagation.  See the third image below.
