Today's propagation appears to have returned closer to a recent normal.  KGØVL reported receiving AB4AM 539 with no QSB for the full two minute transmission.  AB4AM received KGØVL 439.  WA4LDU copied AB4AM 5x7 on SSB.  W4DEX, recording with an original prototype RF-SPACE SDR-IQ receiver, copied KGØVL steady 559, AB4AM 589 and WA4LDU 579.  K5HFG who was heard yesterday by KGØVL was not heard today.
