DST -3 nT
Propagation was again even better today that we had the past few days. WW8II on CW was Q5 copy at W4DEX and KGØVL for the full two-minute transmission. K4DBK also had some copy on WW8II. WW8II had some copy on W4DEX and KGØVL at times with fades into the noise. AB4AM's CW was detected by WW8II. K5HFG was momentarily heard by AB4AM. Signals between KGØVL and KØAWU were Q5 copy in both directions. Propagation between WY3T and W4DEX was good with WY3T copying W4DEX on CW most the transmission period and W4DEX having full copy from WY3T. A quick Q5 SSB exchange was made between WY3T and W4DEX.
