We found propagation slightly better today with KGØVL and WW8II having some copy both ways at 444 miles.  WY3T copied K4FI and W4DEX with QSB.  WY3T also copied AB4AM 549 for the full two-minute transmission.  WY3T was copied by W4DEX or 90 seconds of the two-minute transmission.  

The AB4AM / W4DEX 216 mile path was too weak for SSB but CW was Q5 copy in both directions.  Signals between KP2AE, WA4LDU, K4FI and W4DEX were not up to normal levels but we didn't see the complete loss of signal during fades today.
