SSB Reports:
17:03 KG0VL-JEFF: WW8II 51 SSB

17:03 WW8II-BRUCE: 1702ut complete QSO with KG0VL 51 copy both ways 444 mile east/West path

17:07 WW8II-BRUCE: KG0VL 53 calling K0AWU not hearing K0AWU

17:05 W4DEX-DEX: K4CSO SSB amazing S9+30 signal, stongest ever heard on this short 53 mile path. Normal groundwave signal is only 52 copy. Must be a highly ionized F2 layer near straight up

17:27 W4DEX-DEX: Hearing distant weak SSB

17:29 WW8II-BRUCE: I just completed SSB Q with KG0VL 51
