WW8II on CW was fair copy during the entire two-minute test transmission at KGØVL and W4DEX.  WW8II copied W4DEX  peaking 539, KGØVL 519 and detected CW from K4FI and K5HFG.  WY3T was good copy at W4DEX for about 30 seconds then into the noise while WA4LDU had a fair signal for the whole two minutes.  AB4AM was much weaker than normal at W4DEX and KP2AE but AB4AM was able to swap signal reports with  WA4LDU in SSB mode.  KGØVL copied  KØAWU 549 with very little QSB and in the other direction KGØVL peaked 42 dB above the noise at KØAWU.
