AB4AM appears to have seen the same quick strong enhancement on K4FI's CW signal that was seen by W4DEX on the 12th of May.

AB4AM-ROB: AB4AM & WA4LDU SSB 39-49 with QSB to the noise
AB4AM-ROB: W4DEX 23 SSB just in the noise
AB4AM-ROB: Hearing SSB at the noise maybe WA4LDU

AB4AM-ROB: K4EMF quick QSB to the noise and back up

K0AWU-BILL: KG0VL S2 in short SSB test
K0AWU-BILL: KG0VL at start 22db -- at 45sec brief QSB to 20db back to 22db, 1min brief 20db at 1min 30sec then slow QSB to 13db at the end

W4DEX-DEX: WA4LDU S7 SSB
W4DEX-DEX: WA4LDU good signal and very little QSB
W4DEX-DEX: AB4AM S5
W4DEX-DEX: AB4AM 579 with one slow fade to 539 about middle of transmission
W4DEX-DEX: K4FI 599 with one deep slow fade to 539
W4DEX-DEX: WY3T initially not heard. at 45sec signal came out of the noise peaking 549. slow fade into the noise near eot
W4DEX-DEX: K4EMF initially 219, quick fade close to the noise till eot

WY3T-TIM: Hearing SSB deep in the noise floor
WY3T-TIM: Copying AB4AM but deep in the noise
WY3T-TIM: W4DEX CW 539 with some QSB
WY3T-TIM: AB4AM CW 549 faded out at 90 sec for 10 sec then back to 539
WY3T-TIM: K4FI CW 329 to 539 at 1 min then to 549 to eot


K4FI-DOUG: W4DEX 5 x 7 Some deep short QSB
K4FI-DOUG: AB4AM 4/5 x 5/6 QSB to noise one time. 
K4FI-DOUG: WY3T Barely hear in noise at beginning and then disappeared, back up about 50 seconds, and disappeared again.


WA4LDU-JOE: W4DEX CW 599.... 10db over S9 on peaks with QSB to S5 in the second half
WA4LDU-JOE: AB4AM CW 599 slight QSB
WA4LDU-JOE: K4FI CW 599++
WA4LDU-JOE: WY3T CW 539 with slight QSB

K4EMF-JAY: 559 on AB4AM

KG0VL-JEFF: KØAWU started 529, lost signal after 15 seconds. Out of the noise and back to 529 at 1 min, 35 seconds. No other stations heard.
