18 February 2020
Local propagation was good again today. Paths beyond 200 miles had good peaks were completely in the noise at times. The AB4AM 160 mile path to K4FI was good while the 216 miles between AB4AM and W4DEX was not as reliable. At 336 miles WY3T was marginal copy at W4DEX but his CW was very good copy, WY3T was also good CW copy at K4FI, WA4LDU, KW4DE, and AB4AM. At 400+ miles WW8II was good copy on during peaks both CW and SSB at AB4AM, W4DCL, KW4DE and W4DEX. KGØVL on CW was heard by WW8II, KØAWU and W4DEX. KØAWU was copied by KGØVL and WW8II.
