Hello Dave
I listened for you on FT8, but no luck. The long paths were not really
good this evening, but it was QSB I am sure. WA3EOQ was very weak when
we worked. I had to strain to copy his CW, but then he peaked up Q5 and
about S2 right after our QSO when he worked WA3NUF! KO4YC was worked but
signals were not as loud as many nights. VE3DS out in Toronto was weak
at about 539-549 at best. Many stations did seem loud at somehat closer
distances. W1XR at 412 miles peaked an honest S8! I am hoping that we
eventually can work without having to use the Moon as a passive reflector.
Good luck at Dayton!

Had to call it early. Heading to Phoenix tomorrow for a few days.. Conditions
seemed pretty good. Worked several SSB stations right off the bat and heard 3
or 4 more and a few CW that disappeared with QSB. Only worked one FT8 before
quitting.
Good chance I'll miss next week as well because I have a lot of "stuff" to
organize and pack for the trip to Hamvention. Look me up under the bright orange canopy
in the flea market. Spaces are #7513-7516
