12 January 2020

We had a good turnout today with many paths tested.  Propagation was good but short of what we saw on the 1st and 10th of this month.  QSB was fast on most of the less than 250-mile paths.  The longer paths seemed to be more stable.  The WW8II / KGØVL, east-west,  pipeline was present.   Iowa, KGØVL, into GA, SC, NC and VA was more stable than from Michigan, WW8II, into those states although on peaks WW8II was stronger. 

  • Best DX reception today was 1,115 miles, AB4AM (Georgia) on CW copied by KØAWU (Minnesota).  AB4AM was able to detect SSB form KØAWU.
