    Second 8m experimental station in the USA

    John, EI7GL reports than a second experimental station has been licenced in
    the USA. I am convinced that the amateur service will get a small
    allocation there eventually, but maybe not in my lifetime!! I hope that
    more stations apply for, and are granted, access to this frequency. Surely
    they can find a small slot?

    10m WSPR (Wednesday)

    Posted: 25 Aug 2021 11:11 AM PDT http://g3xbm-qrp.blogspot.com/2021/08/10m-wspr-wednesday.html


    Shortly, I intend to go on 10m WSPR for the day with 500mW. Yesterday was
    a surpr meise with spots by 3 unique stations. It is impossible to predict
    what will happen later. It is 0815z.
    UPDATE 1201z: Several spots of me by OH6BG (1718km).
    UPDATE 1811z: Just 2 unique stations have spotted me today so far with the furthermost EA8BRK (2880km).
