The solar X-ray Flux today was spiking near the M class flare level.  Propagaion may have been good but we had only one propagation report due to WW8II, AB4AM and W4DEX not beating able to transmit the usual CW sequence due to thunderstorm.  Also KØAWU wasn't available so the nearest transmission to KGØVL was by K5HFG at 593 miles.  

However, propagation between WY3T and W4DEX appears to have been very good. WY3T's CW would have been very good copy at W4DEX without heavy QRN.  Recording of WY3T as received by W4DEX with a 150 foot WOG receiving antenna below:

CW was just detectable in both directions between WW8II and KGØVL.

WY3T detected CW from W4DEX and K4FI.   WA4LDU had weak copy on WY3T at the start of his CW transmission.  WA1AC and KP2E also had some copy on WY3T.  

Propagation between KP2AE, WA4LDU, WA1AC and W4DEX was very good today.  KP2AE was S9+10 on peaks at W4DEX.    This short 51 mile path typically runs from S5 to S7 peaks.  And there have been times the path was unusable.

The band was again very noisy in the southeast today but propagation must have been fair due to some signals making it over the QRN.  AB4AM was copied very well by KP2AE, WA4LDU and W4DEX for the full two-minute transmission.  WY3T also copied AB4AM up to 549 with a deep fade into the noise.  AB4AM reported W4DEX fair copy with deep fades and WY3T at 329 with QSB.  WA4LDU also copied WY3T peaking 529 with QSB to 319.  

KGØVL was briefly copied by WW8II with the signal being detectable near the end of the transmission.  KØAWU reported KGØVL's CW fair copy with deep QSB fades.  In the other direction KGØVL reported KØAWU's CW up and down with a peak of 529 and into the noise briefly.

160 meters in the southeast was inundated with QRN today making it difficult to gauge propagation.  Still some signal got though enough to indicate propagation possibly was better than yesterday.  KP2AE's signal was way over S9 on peaks at W4DEX where the QRN was averaging S8.  AB4AM was good copy on CW at WA4LDU, W4DEX, KP2AE and KW4DE.  AB4AM and WA4LDU copied WY3T on peaks.  WY3T copied AB4AM.  The most northern path was weak but still, KGØVL copied KØAWU 529 with some fades into the noise.   KØAWU reported Q5 copy of KGØVL with fades but not complete loss of signal during the usual two minute CW transmission.
