17:25 KG0VL-JEFF: WW8II: 559 good copy, peaked >45db

17:25 K5HFG-DON: WW8II Weak trace, no tone, in the noise entire Tx.

Note: 
17:25 K0AWU-BILL: VERY ODD --- QSB on Jeff was VERY VERY fast and DEEP. Almost NO QSB at all on Bruce except those few sequences right after the 1 MIn mark

17:02 AB4AM-ROB: Had a short burst of SSB, now nada

17:03 W4DEX-DEX: K4CSO SSB only 32 copy

17:04 AB4AM-ROB: Just hearing W4DEX in the noise

17:04 WW8II-BRUCE: KG0VL QSO quick QSB from 41 to S9 copy SSB 444 mile path

17:06 W4DEX-DEX: K4CSO SSB 53 on a peak

17:07 KG0VL-JEFF: Still hearing W4DEX very weak on SSB

17:29 W4DEX-DEX: KD4RLD SSB 55

17:28 WW8II-BRUCE: Nice Q with KG0VL 55 copy both ways then after a min 53 copy QSB

K4CSO Report:
W4DEX S9 on peaks over S7 noise.
AB4AM about S8 on peaks both CW and SSB
WW8II CW too close to the noise to copy call 
KG0VL Heard one brief 1~2 second tone at 12:20

Heard Brian KD4RLD enough on SSB to get call but not enough to tell what he was saying. And you gave his call confirming I'd heard it right.
