*1.5*

WW8II-BRUCE: lightning being seen today far S.W. corner of N.C. and the far N.W corner of S.C. also some between Columbia and Charleston S.C. some around Savannah GA and between thwere and Jacksonville FL

WW8II-BRUCE: Magnetometer at 1640 was 107nt

 WW8II-BRUCE: Solar wind Speed @ 1642 was 364km/s the PHI was 353 and the Density was 8.42
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
16:37 WY3T-TIM: Hearing some SSB deep in the noise floor

16:37 K0AWU-BILL: KG0VL S2 - S4 SSB in short QSO

WW8II-BRUCE: 2 Minute CW WW8II 1640, KG0VL 1642, K0AWU 1644, WY3T 1646, W4DEX 1648, K4FI 1650

(Only positive receptions listed below.  Full log on next page)

16:41 W4DEX-DEX: WW8II good visual but not heard.

16:44 K0AWU-BILL: KG0VL START 17db, 30sec 28db, 45sec 28db, 1min 10db, dorn to 4db 1min 15sec 12db, 1min 30sec 17db, 1min 45sec 5db, END 18db

16:45 WW8II-BRUCE: KG0VL 1min 15 sec possible detect 2db above the noise until 1min40 sec then gone

16:47 W4DEX-DEX: WY3Y nice 549 copy over the QRN during first min. Then nosedive into the noise recovering some last 15 sec

16:48 WA4LDU-JOE: WY3T CW faint detection 16:46:50 to 16:47:15 .. no other copy

16:48 K4FI-DOUG: WY3T barely visible on Speclab I think.

16:49 KG0VL-JEFF: K0AWU: 529 at start, signal faded and eventually lost for 10 seconds. Back up at 1 minute 10 seconds, 529-539. Last 20 seconds, signal became lightly distorted and fuzzy, more ionospheric than rig related.

16:50 WY3T-TIM: W4DEX CW 539 to 549 at 1649:40 then faded to noise at 1649:20 for 10 sec then back to 439 to eot

16:50 K4FI-DOUG: W4DEX 5 x 6/7, very light QSB

16:50 WA4LDU-JOE: W4DEX CW 579 steady

16:50 WA4LDU-JOE: K4FI CW 599+

16:51 W4DEX-DEX: K4FI steady 589

16:52 KP2AE-JOE: much qsb on k4fi CW 579 to 519 lots of static

16:52 WY3T-TIM: K4FI CW deep in the noise then completely gone at 165100 to eot

16:53 KW4DE-DARRELL: W4DEX andK4FI FB S9 CW----all else QRN

17:00 KG0VL-JEFF: KØAWU just ran another 2 minute CW sequence. 539 and no distortion. Thanks for the extra time Bill.

16:52 K0AWU-BILL: WY3T, W4DEX, K4FI nothing heard or detected

16:52 WA4LDU-JOE: 59 lightning static

16:52 K0AWU-BILL: KG0VL RR Warming up amp again

16:53 KG0VL-JEFF: call me on ssb when ready

16:53 K0AWU-BILL: KG0VL RR 2min

16:53 KW4DE-DARRELL: Dex and Doug fb s9 cw----all else qrn

16:53 WW8II-BRUCE: NOTE: I have had NO harmonic interferance today will keep watching the frequency for a few days befor we decide to change frequencies

16:54 WW8II-BRUCE: I have my antenna poited toward Jeff aand Bill

16:55 W4DEX-DEX: OK Bruce

16:55 WA4LDU-JOE: Bruce, are you aware of anything that has changed that may contribute to no interference?

16:57 WW8II-BRUCE: NOT at this time I have no idea this comes and goes sometimes here 24 houirs then gone for days then back the only thing for sure when the ground is real wet everything is super clean and when it dries out then I see the harmonics from the station it is 18.2 miles from me

16:57 WW8II-BRUCE: I heard NO SSB from Bill or Jeff

16:58 WW8II-BRUCE: Today I see the harmonic at 1900 real strong but not the other spikes on either side of it.

17:00: *** K0AWU is now offline ***

17:00 KG0VL-JEFF: KØAWU just ran another 2 minute cw sequence. 539 and no distortion. Thanks for the extra time Bill.

17:00: *** WA4LDU is now offline ***

17:01: *** WA4LDU is now online ***

17:01 WW8II-BRUCE: OK copy log now

17:01 WA4LDU-JOE: Bruce, is the ground wet today?

17:02 WW8II-BRUCE: It is damp

17:02 KG0VL-JEFF: Epsom salt

17:02 WA4LDU-JOE: more damp than yesterday?

17:02 WW8II-BRUCE: I would not say real wet but then it m,ay have rained overnight

17:03 WW8II-BRUCE: RR the SALT

17:03 WW8II-BRUCE: YES

17:03: *** KP2AE is now offline ***

17:04 KG0VL-JEFF: There used to be quite a few folks around here that had those "dream catchers" feathers that hung from their rear-view mirror.

17:05 WA4LDU-JOE: ??

17:05 WW8II-BRUCE: I am also looking into the possibilty of a renigade station in the area because there a pile of church stations running illegle around the Detroit area ands they do not transmit on the AM band but out side of it.

17:06 K4FI-DOUG: W4DEX, The freq change would suite me, get me away from fence noise. Lightning static almost continuos.

17:06 WW8II-BRUCE: I will keep watcxhing before we decide to move frequency.

17:07 KG0VL-JEFF: I have no issues with the frequency either.

17:07 WW8II-BRUCE: OK

17:07 WA4LDU-JOE: the ideas I have all involve checking thing on their end

17:08 WW8II-BRUCE: 1896 to 1897 looks good for me so far even 1898 is a close 2nd

17:09 WA4LDU-JOE: It is difficult for me to determine a good freq change as the lightning static has been so intense here the last few days

17:10: *** KW4DE is now offline ***

17:10 WA4LDU-JOE: 73 all

17:10: *** WA4LDU is now offline ***

17:10: *** K4FI is now offline ***

17:10 WY3T-TIM: 73s

17:11: *** WY3T is now offline ***

17:11 KG0VL-JEFF: Have a good Friday everyone, see you all tomorrow. 73

17:11 WW8II-BRUCE: OK 73 for today see you all tomorrow I hope so far no harmonic isses on 1899 today
