    Today, I am on 10m FT8 RX. My gear was turned on at 0844z. Very quiet so
    far.
    UPDATE 0908z: Just 2 spots so far 1 G and 1 PA. Probably tropo or aircraft.

    For a few hours yesterday evening I went on 472kHz WSPR RX. 10 unique
    stations were spotted using the coax up to my 2m Big-wheel antenna and the mains earth.

    Actually, I have never ever used a digital mode like Fusion, D-star or
    DMR. I used to have an FT-991A that supported Fusion. Currently I have an IC-705 that (I believe) supports D-star. As far as I am aware I can only
    access DMR via the internet, but I do not (yet) know how to do this.
    Actually, these digital modes are a knowledge gap that I should try to plug
    in the coming months.

    Don't worry Jim these modes will soon be replaced by something newer,
    but in 100 years time people will still be playing vinyl records,
    using Morse and will be fascinated by steam engines and using analogue electronics.
