    Using the coax up to my 2m big-wheel antenna via a ferrite rod ATU and the mains earth, I am monitoring 472kHz WSPR this evening. So far, 5 unique stations already spotted with the furthermost DB8BG (498km).
    UPDATE 2137z: 9 unique stations spotted this evening on 472Hz WSPR.

    10m FT8 RX (Saturday)

    My system was turned on at 0901z. So far (at 0952z) 69 stations spotted on
    10m FT8 RX. The furthermost is 4F3BZ (10632km) in the Philippines. 10m is definitely coming to life again.
    UPDATE 1400z: 213 stations spotted on 10m FT8 RX so far today.
    UPDATE 1520z: 219 stations spotted with the furthermost VK6BMA (14443km)

    As 10m FT8 seems to have closed for me, I have QSYed to 472kHz WSPR RX with
    the coax up to the 2m big-wheel and the mains earth. So far (after about 10 minutes) 3 stations have been spotted with the furthermost DF1VB (506km). UPDATE 2159z: So far this evening, 13 unique stations spotted with the furthermost IN3EAR (1069km) .
