K0AWU-MN, WB4WCJ-SC, WW8II-MI, K4FI-SC, K5HFG-MS, KP2AE-SC, W4DEX-NC, KG0VL-IA, WY3T-FL, WA9FDO-IN, K4TEG-TN
Propagation between some locations was good today while on other paths were rather poor. The 800+ mile KGØVL-Iowa to NC and SC was good but the 500+ mile WW8II-Michigan was poor. We've seen this propagation shift several times recently. Also, WA9FDO in Indiana being close to in the middle of the Iowa to NC/SC path was not heard in NC/SC but was 5x7 in Iowa and 5x9 at WW8II in Michigan.
Some highlights of the day:
- Best DX SSB QSO: KGØVL - K4FI at 830 miles
- K5HFG on CW was good copy at W4DEX for two minutes, a first.
- K0AWU reported WW8II signal 30db above noise solid no QSB on a peak
- KG0VL heard WY3T CW right at noise level, however, no characters identified, 1009 miles
