    Frank, VO1HP reports that the VO1FN monitoring station will be listening
    for trans-Atlantic FT8 signals on 144.174 MHz from the 21st to the 25th of June.
    As I write this on the 21st of June, there are reports of Sporadic-E on
    88.5 MHz between Ireland and Greenland.
    If stations in the west of Europe can hear strong VO stations in
    Newfoundland on 50 MHz then they should consider trying to point their 144
    MHz beams towards Newfoundland and give a few calls on FT8.
