    10m FT8

    At 0822z I turned on 10m FT8 QRP using 2.5W briefly before going RX only.
    My signal was spotted on TX by nobody and I have spotted a couple of
    Spanish stations on RX.
    UPDATE 1252z: 39 stations spotted on RX so far. 4 stations have spotted me
    on TX.
    UPDATE 1550z: 44 stations spotted with the furthermost VO1NE (3933km).

    We returned home about 1440z. I am now on 10m FT8, initially on 2.5W TX,
    now RX only. On TX I was spotted by G0FWX (160km) and a couple of stations
    have been spotted on RX. These could be Es, tropo or aircraft.
    UPDATE 2210z: 8 stations spotted on 10m FT8 RX with the furthermost
    LU1DVH (11217km).

    For the last few days I have been in Sheffield for a funeral. We return
    home shortly. I hope to be on 160m FT8 RX later.
    UPDATE 2211z: 222 stations spotted this evening with the furthermost RW9JZ (4318km).
