DST -3
The northern paths seem to be holding up better than those to the south. The KGØVL / KØAUW path was useable and both copied CW from WW8II. KGØVL reported WW8II's CW tone had a hollow sound. KGØVL also heard AB4AM's CW 419. WW8II copied a few letters of K5HFG's call. Farther south propagation wasn't as good. W4DEX had much weaker than normal signals from AB4AM, WA4LDU and KP2AE with KP2AE going into the noise at times. WY3T on CW was not heard by W4DEX but was heard by WA4LDU. AB4AM made a quick SSB exchange with WY3T.
