*1*

16:20 WW8II-BRUCE: Solar flux 137, A-index 6, K-index 2

16:22 WW8II-BRUCE: Solar activity last 24 hours MAX M1.34 yesterday @1824ut in (3016), currently B7.1 with a slight 3 db absorption in progress

16:27 WW8II-BRUCE: Lightning today Heavy in WEST CENTRAL ILLINOIS , Central TN west central Alabama HEAVY in the GULF south of Alabama and the western Florida panhandle also some in south Georgia north of Tallahassee FL. and some seen in western South Carolina

16:51 WW8II-BRUCE: Magnetometers @1640 ut GOES 16 @75.2W was 127nt, GOES 17 @137.2W was 116nt

16:52 WW8II-BRUCE: Solar wind @1645 UT was 319 km/s, PHI 131, Density 17.26 p/cm3

16:52 WA4LDU-JOE: Solar flare reading B7.52 - first time it has been below C in a while - did this contribute to better local conditions between me and W4DEX?

SSB Reports:
16:32 W4DEX-DEX: WA4LDU SSB good S3 copy on peaks with QSB into the noise

16:32 WW8II-BRUCE: I will call for 1 min SSB @1634ut

16:36 WW8II-BRUCE: I hear NO response from my SSB call

16:41 W4DEX-DEX: WA4LDU SSB several S6 transmissions.  Unusual

16:43 W4DEX-DEX: Looks like one of those days when local signals are fare but  DX reception is poor

16:52 WA4LDU-JOE: Solar flare reading B7.52 - first time it has been below C in a while - did this contribute to better local conditions between me and W4DEX?

16:25 W4DEX-DEX: Yes joe, back to 2 watts erp

16:26 W4DEX-DEX: put amp back inline yesterday. didn't find the intermittent problem so suspect it will fail again

16:28: *** N2QIL is now online ***

16:27 W4DEX-DEX: Joe, looks like last report was early this morning.....so appears it has already failed 

16:28 WW8II-BRUCE: Local WX 74deg 76% humidity cloudy may rain again it rained all night so everything is wet.

16:49 WW8II-BRUCE: Even my 2nd harmonic interferance is down 10+ db today

16:49 K5HFG-DON: NO signals detected here today.

16:51 WW8II-BRUCE: Magnetometers @1640 ut GOES 16 @75.2W was 127nt, GOES 17 @137.2W was 116nt

16:51 K5HFG-DON: 73 guys. CUL

16:52: *** K5HFG is now offline ***

16:52 WA4LDU-JOE: Solar flare reading B7.52 - first time it has been below C in a while - did this contribute to better local conditions between me and Dex?

16:52 WW8II-BRUCE: OK I will copy and save the logs and be ready to do it again tomorrow

16:53 WW8II-BRUCE: MY 2 nd harmonic is really way down maybe they fixed it NO such LUCK

16:54 W4DEX-DEX: K5HFG CW no signal detected
