Today we found propagation to be the best we've seen since the end of March:

16:35 K0AWU-BILL: KG0VL now S2-S3 SSB good copy 
16:48 K0AWU-BILL: KG0VL 28db at start, 26db at 15sec, 20db at 30sec, 22db at 45sec after brief dip to 6db, 23db at 1min, 27db at 1min 15sec, 32db at 1min 30sec 24db at 1min 45sec and 28db at end

16:49 KG0VL-JEFF: KØAWU 539 steady signal for the entire duration, good copy.
16:43 KG0VL-JEFF: WW8II heard for the entire duration, peaked 529. Copied callsign, dashes and "Rogers"

16:49 WW8II-BRUCE: KG0VL AT 1 MIN POINT COPY CALL 339 1 MIN 20 SEC GONE BUT I HEARD HIM TODAY
16:50 WW8II-BRUCE: W4DEX POSSIBLE DETECT AT THE START AND UP TO THE 30 SEC
16:52 WW8II-BRUCE: K4FI POSSIBLE BURSTS ???? 

16:29 WY3T-TIM: Hearing W4DEX 32
16:50 WY3T-TIM: W4DEX CW deep in the noise first 15 sec then built to 549 then 549 at 1 min then 539 to EOT
16:51 WY3T-TIM: K4FI CW 539 to 549 then faded to 429 at 1 min to noise floor at 90 sec to eot

16:53 K5HFG: There may have been a burst from K4FI but I have so much harmonic trash on the scope I can not say for sure.

16:54 K4FI-DOUG: WY3T 2/3 x 3, dropped at 1:15, could still see on the scope

16:51 W4DEX-DEX: K4FI 599+, very minor QSB
