    10m WSPR TX beacon using 500mW (Wednesday)

    Most of the morning I've been on 10m WSPR TX using 500mW. As of 1015z 6 stations have spotted me.
    UPDATE 1117z: Still 6 unique stations have spotted me with the
    furthermost EA8BFK (2880km).

    After a very brief TX period (2.5W) I am on 6m FT8 RX only with the V2000 omni antenna. It is now 0812z and 3 stations spotted with the furthermost
    EA7L (1739km). Early Es which is promising. My brief TX period resulted in
    5 UK spots.
    UPDATE 1113z: 35 stations spotted on 6m FT8 RX.

    10m WSPR yesterday

    As we were out much of yesterday I was late on 10m WSPR TX. Nonetheless,
    there plenty of spots from South America. 10m WSPR never fails to amaze me. This is with the tiny self contained beacon (500mW) from Jay W5OLF.
