WW8II-BRUCE: Magnetometer @ 1640ut 121nt
WW8II-BRUCE: Solar Wind Speed @ 1646ut 286km/s and the PHI was 227
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

16:39 KG0VL-JEFF: Very nice SSB from KØAWU, 5X4 good copy.

16:39 K0AWU-BILL: KG0VL S4 SSB with some QSB in short test;

16:40 W4DEX-DEX: .about normal signal from K4FI with no QSB noted

WW8II-BRUCE: 2 minute CW WW8II 1640, KG0VL 1642, K0AWU 1644, K4FI 1646, W4DEX 1648

16:41 W4DEX-DEX: WW8II just barely heard but very good visual signal

16:44 K0AWU-BILL: KG0VL 30db at start, 30sec 32db, 45sec 30db, 1min22db down to 16db at 1min 10sec then up to 28db at 1min 30sec, 1min 45sec 27db, END 20db

16:44 W4DEX-DEX: KG0VL maybe a few electrons excited at the loop.....just a few pixels showing up in line on SpecLab

16:46 WW8II-BRUCE: KG0VL 37 SEC TO 46 SEC DETECT 1-2 dB ABOVE NOISE 1min. 12 sec. 1-2 dB for about 4 sec. 1min 43 sec 1-2 dB out of noise DETECT only did not copy call

16:47 W4DEX-DEX: K4FI steady 599

16:48 KG0VL-JEFF: WW8II: Heard 319-419 at start for about twenty seconds. In and out of noise until the last 15 seconds and back to 319. Copied calls both times

16:50 KG0VL-JEFF: KØAWU: Very good CW signal, 549-559 for duration with light qsb. Very stable and strong signal, would make for pleasant CW QSO level.

16:51 WW8II-BRUCE: W4DEX Start 2 to 3 dB above noise for 11 sec then gone, 1min 14 sec 1 to 2 dB out of noise then gone did not copy call

16:52 K4FI-DOUG: W4DEX 5 x 7, some QSB. 5 x 8 last minute

16:38 WW8II-BRUCE: I have been listening to the S SE hearing nothing but static ,, same with the NW just staic

16:39 KG0VL-JEFF: Very nice ssb from KØAWU, 5X4 good copy.

16:39 K0AWU-BILL: KG0VL S4 SSB with some QSB in short test;

16:39 WW8II-BRUCE: OK 2min CW ready on time

16:40: *** W8GXR is now online ***

16:40 W4DEX-DEX: Doug and I have been chatting so the frequency was busy......about normal signal from K4FI with no QSB noted

16:41 K0AWU-BILL: Everyone ::: If you can get a chance, look for the Comet NEOWISE the next couple days ... beautuful

16:41 W4DEX-DEX: WW8II just barely heard but very good visual signal

16:41 K4FI-DOUG: WW8II No Copy

16:42 K0AWU-BILL: WW8II ... nothig heard or detected

16:42 W4DEX-DEX: Very low on the horizon for me Bill and the light polution from the city of Conrod is bad in that direction

16:47 WW8II-BRUCE: RR ON THE COMET I HAVE SEEN TWICE NOW

16:47 W4DEX-DEX: K4FI steady 599

16:48 WW8II-BRUCE: K4FI NO DETECT

16:48 KG0VL-JEFF: WW8II: Heard 319-419 at start for about twenty seconds. In and out of noise until last 15 seconds and back to 319. Copied calls both times

16:50 K0AWU-BILL: K4FI, W4DEX nothing heard or detected

16:50 KG0VL-JEFF: KØAWU: Very good cw signal, 549-559 for duration with light qsb. Very stable and strong signal, would make for pleasant cw qso level.

16:51 WW8II-BRUCE: W4DEX Start 2 to 3 db above noise for 11 sec then gone, 1min 14 sec 1 to 2 db out of noise then gone did not copy call 

16:52 WW8II-BRUCE: Magnetometer @ 1640ut 121nt

16:52 KG0VL-JEFF: No copy from Doug or Dex

16:52 K4FI-DOUG: W4DEX 5 x 7 , some QSB. 5 x 8 last minute

16:53 WW8II-BRUCE: Solar Wind Speed @ 1646ut 286km/s and the PHI was 227

16:54: *** K0AWU is now offline ***

16:54 WW8II-BRUCE: Jeff again the diffeance of yoou hearing me to copy cal is I have 3db more power

16:54 WW8II-BRUCE: OK coping logs now

16:54 KG0VL-JEFF: I would agree with that. If I had "any" noise at all, I would not hear you. 

16:55 WW8II-BRUCE: Jeff I have my pick ups back to 142 inches

16:57 WW8II-BRUCE: logs copied and saved till tomorrow nice day must get to the outside stuff while it is not to hot

16:57 KG0VL-JEFF: I kept mine also at 142 and it seems to work better than 153. Going to go out today and see if I can achieve perfect symmetry. It's hard to do.

16:58 WW8II-BRUCE: perfect yep

16:58 KG0VL-JEFF: I am 6 foot five and I can walk underneath all my loops and TX lines.

16:58 WW8II-BRUCE: I still cannot get more than 25 db front to back but then I have way too many stations in this area

17:00: *** W8GXR is now offline ***

17:00 WW8II-BRUCE: I put up a 128 foot total flag antenn with the vertical section 32 ft using it to listen with my SDRplay RSPdx receiver had to put a 160 meter filter in it though because again overload from local AM broadcast stations

17:01 WW8II-BRUCE: OK later 73 

17:02 KG0VL-JEFF: 73 everyone

17:02: *** WW8II is now offline ***
