16:45 KG0VL-JEFF: WW8II: weak cw carrier heard, strong visual detection, >10db above the noise floor

16:44 WY3T-TIM: KG0VL cw no copy/detect

16:44 K5HFG-DON: KG0VL no detect

16:44 WW8II-BRUCE: KG0VL start 0, 0, 0, 0, 1 min det to 4db, 0, 0, 0, 0, EOT 0

16:44 W4DEX-DEX: KG0VL CW not heard, fair visual first min, then fade close to noise floor

16:46 KW4DE-DARRELL: K5HFG cw nothing heard today

16:46 W4DEX-DEX: K5HFG CW no signal detected, odd drop in noise floor near eot?

16:47 KG0VL-JEFF: K5HFG: no detection

16:48 WW8II-BRUCE: WY3T start 0, 0, 0, 0, 1 min 0, 0, 0, 0, EOT 0

16:48 K5HFG-DON: WY3T no detect

16:48 WA4LDU-JOE: WW8II, KG0VL, K5HFG, WY3T, cw no detect

16:48 KW4DE-DARRELL: WY3T cw heard few light characters midway into transmission, overall no usable copy

16:48 KG0VL-JEFF: WY3T: no detection

16:50 WW8II-BRUCE: I saw a 5db carrier just before WY3T ended transmission

16:50 W4DEX-DEX: WY3T CW no signal detected

16:50 WA4LDU-JOE: W4DEX cw 439 with some fades to noise

16:50 WY3T-TIM: W4DEX cw no copy/detect

16:50 WW8II-BRUCE: W4DEX start 0, 0, 0, det??, 1 min det to 3 db, 0, 0, det to 3db, EOT 4db

16:50 KW4DE-DARRELL: W4DEX cw 599 copy, very little qsb

16:50 K5HFG-DON: W4DEX no detect

16:52 KG0VL-JEFF: W4DEX: no cw heard, good visual detection

16:51 KW4DE-DARRELL: For curiosity, listened to Washington DC SDR while also listen on station today. No signals were detected on cw on 1899 on that receiver today either.
