15 July 2022
*1*

Note: Unusually good propagation today between KP2AE, WA1AC and W4DEX considering the poor conditions of recent days and current D-layer absorption.

16:23 WW8II-BRUCE: Solar activity lots, Max so far M2.89 @ 2148, C5.5 @1205ut, C2.36 @ 1607ut in time for net Current @1614ut C1.9 D layer absorption 7db

16:25 WW8II-BRUCE: Lightning N.E. Gulf from TX to Baton Rouge to the Gulf coast of Fl and all of S.FL and in the Atlantic from the Bahamas up to the coast of N.C.
