    Oscar 100 activity

    Every few weeks I look at the narrowband transponder of this geosynchronous satellite using the webSDR at Goonhilly. Activity level remained very very
    low when I looked, which was 0925z on a weekday morning. Most activity
    seems to be from Europe, so this was not a great time.

    160m FT8 RX overnight

    Using the active Wellgood loop indoors, I was on 160m FT8 RX overnight. In
    all, 147 stations spotted, but none "across the pond".
