Signals on distant paths continue to decline but still detectable on peaks. KGØVL detected CW from AB4AM at 717 miles and from W4DEX at 808 miles. WW8II and KGØVL was able to swap S2 SSB signal reports at 443 miles. Also a quick SSB QSO between WY3T and W4DEX at 336 miles.
On some of the shorter paths, we saw very strong signals on peaks with fades close to the noise. At one point AB4AM was only S2 at W4DEX while only 16 miles from W4DEX his signal was S9 at KW4DE. At 95 miles the K4FI / W4DEX path was very good with very little QSO the 51 miles between KP2AE and W4DEX had a lot of QSB. Also, there were very strong peaks between KP2AE and AB4AM.
