16:52 K5HFG-DON: 73 guys, CUL

16:53: *** K5HFG is now offline ***

16:54 WW8II-BRUCE: Checking solar activuity again nothing as far as flares there are some large Coronal holes that maybe dumping large amounts of energy many local AM broad cast stations are weaker than normal

16:55 WW8II-BRUCE: My 2nd harmonic from the local 950n station is down 10 to 15db below what it usually runs at 1900

16:56: *** KP2AE is now offline ***

16:56 WW8II-BRUCE: That is a 50KW station, transmitter located 15 miles from me

16:56 WW8II-BRUCE: interesting note local signals down yet a 510 mile path still there

16:57 WW8II-BRUCE: I will copy and save the logs now

16:57: *** KW4DE is now offline ***

16:58: *** WA4LDU is now offline ***

16:58 WW8II-BRUCE: Logs copied and saved\

16:59 KG0VL-JEFF: Just checked my regional AM BCB stations for RX directivity. Will concur that stations greater than >100 miles are degraded.

16:59 WW8II-BRUCE: I am disconnected lightning issue closing in again

17:03: *** STOPPED LOGGING *** 1899 kHz Mid-day Prop Test
