16:59 W4DEX-DEX: Calling KC4RCR SSB now

17:00 KC4RCR-ROUSSEAU: Nothing heard, but called back

17:01 W4DEX-DEX: Weak SSB heard

17:01 W4DEX-DEX: Call again please

17:01 KC4RCR-ROUSSEAU: I think I might hear a voice in there, hard to say

17:02 W4DEX-DEX: KC4RCR SSB heard 4x2 during a peak

17:02 KC4RCR-ROUSSEAU: better than I thought. Running ~200w, OCF dipole 35' AGL

17:03 W4DEX-DEX: OK, no problem hearing your call on last transmission.....looks like we are about 300 miles apart

17:04 WY3T-TIM: Hearing no SSB signals here

17:08 KG0VL-JEFF: KØAWU 51 SSB, good Q5 copy

17:04 WY3T-TIM: Hearing no SSB signals here

17:04 KC4RCR-ROUSSEAU: very cool

17:05 W4DEX-DEX: Several of us do 2 min CW each starting at 1710, then back to SSB for a wrapup

17:05 KG0VL-JEFF: 2 minute cw schedule: KGØVL 1710, KØAWU 1712, WY3T 1714, W4DEX 1716. Rousseau if you would like to the cw portion let us know.

17:06 KC4RCR-ROUSSEAU: Unfortiunately I am not CW educated yet but I'll listen in

17:07 W4DEX-DEX: Our CW is dead on 1899. So depending on your radio you may need to tune us in.....a just hearing CW at a specific time will be helpful

17:23 W4DEX-DEX: Hear any CW Rousseau?

17:25 WY3T-TIM: The high noise I am experiencing is 200+ khz wide and starts around 1100 and usually lasts until around 1500. sounds like arcing and I have tried to track it but so far no success. I t never there in the early mornings or evening when 160 prop i good.

17:26 KG0VL-JEFF: 80 mile-distant TIS station louder than usual now.

17:26 W4DEX-DEX: Wow, hope your find it or it stops Tim

17:26 KC4RCR-ROUSSEAU: negative on the CW

17:27 KC4RCR-ROUSSEAU: seems like my "ears" are weak all around today

17:27 W4DEX-DEX: RR, thanks for the report

17:29 WY3T-TIM: It is only on 160. If it is some power line hardware arcing, maybe it will change if it raind on Monday.
