16:26 WW8II-BRUCE: Lightning today REAL HEAVY in the Florida panhandle and the gulf area in the panhandle area also extending to North Florida to central Florida also heavy in South Georgia and East central GA into West central S.C.
16:53 WW8II-BRUCE: Solar wind @ 1643ut 404 km/s, PHI 331, Density 6.19p/cm3

16:23 K5HFG-DON: 86 F 74% humidity and sunny. Noise is back to s9+ SSB and s6 CW. Mag Field back to Quiet
16:24 WW8II-BRUCE: I transmitted a 30 sec CW Carrier several times today pre net and NO signal seen @ W4DEX

16:25 W4DEX-DEX: Suspect that noise burst at 1621 on SpecLab is my "smart" power meter reporting. Think it called TWACS. I did some research on that reporting method a few years ago when it was bothering my VLF receptions
16:26 WW8II-BRUCE: Lightning today REAL HEAVY in the Florida panhandle and the gulf area in the panhandle aera also extending to North Floida to central Florida also heavy in South Georgia and East central GA into West central S.C.
16:27 W4DEX-DEX: Considerable QRN here
16:28 WW8II-BRUCE: My noise floor today with the inverted V SSB S9, CW S5-6, with the SAL antenna SSB S6-7, CW S3-4. with the LOG antenna SSB S7, CW S4
16:28 WY3T-TIM: 84 F partly cloudy/rain . . . noise S5-6 SSB / S3 CW . . -110 dbm ave noise floor . . static lightning crashes 15 - 30 db above the noise floor
16:30 WW8II-BRUCE: Local WX 87 deg. 63% humidity, sunny with wind SW @20mph had lite rain an hour ago T storms predicted for later this afternoon
16:32 WW8II-BRUCE: Tim I just looked at an expanded view of the lightning and you are in the middle with heavy to your north and to your east you must have the lightnig repeller on today

16:36 WW8II-BRUCE: Still just 500 watts Elecrazft says will be another 4 week
16:36 WY3T-TIM: Yes I am surrounded today . . I am seeing as high as 40 over the noise floor.
16:37 W4DEX-DEX: No one heard on SSB, QRN intensifying
16:38 WW8II-BRUCE: OK I am ready to start the CW @ 1640ut
16:38 WW8II-BRUCE: I also hear only noise today no signals so far
16:38 W4DEX-DEX: DX Engineering has a few more ACOM 1500s Bruce
