16:23 WW8II-BRUCE: The Alpena Michigan IONAGRAM sounder is really loud here today 3 to 6 db above the noise

16:23 W4DEX-DEX: Not seen here Bill....looks like Bruce did a quick carrier at 1614

16:24 WW8II-BRUCE: https://lgdc.uml.edu/common/ShowIonogramPage?mid=44902190&ursiCode=AL945&time=2021.10.31%20(304)%2016:15:00.000

16:24 WW8II-BRUCE: YES I did a SSB check at that time

16:24 WW8II-BRUCE: I will call agaion @1625

16:25 KG0VL-JEFF: I answered you Bruce, no response. Very weak here on ssb.
