16:25 W4DEX-DEX: Tim, could you send about a 5 or 10 second carrier to see if I can spot your frequency?

16:27 WW8II-BRUCE: Local WX the ground still damp from rain earlier, Storms now moved off to the east, 75 deg 79% humidity

16:27 WY3T-TIM: 90 F sunny . . . noise S5-6 SSB / S3 CW . . . -109 dbm ave noise floor . . . no static lightning crashes

16:27 WY3T-TIM: I will send it at 1628

16:28 WW8II-BRUCE: I have a QRN of up to 10 to 15 db above the noise floor from the lightning to my south in Ohio

16:28 WY3T-TIM: sent at 1628 for 15 sec

16:29: *** K0AWU is now online ***

16:28 WW8II-BRUCE: I am looking to the SE and see no carrier at this time 20 db crashes

16:29 W4DEX-DEX: OK, it showed up nicely. Just wanted to make sure I had you in the SpecLab window http://www.w4dex.com/160m/1899khz-live.gif

16:29 WW8II-BRUCE: There was a nice Aurora last night but I heard no one must have all been at the VHF conferance

16:30 K0AWU-BILL: 67deg and 85% humidity -- Very high QRN level from storms all around us. We are clear of them, so I can transmit. Rec on the other hand, not so much

16:31: *** K5HFG is now online ***

16:32 W4DEX-DEX: Tim, with a little additional audio filtering on the computer I could copy some of your transmission yesterday

16:32 WW8II-BRUCE: I have the same issue here Bill High QRN to mt south about 50 to 75 miles
