    10m WSPR TX beacon (Tuesday)

    Posted: 28 Dec 2021 01:36 AM PST http://g3xbm-qrp.blogspot.com/2021/12/10m-wspr-tx-beacon-tuesday.html


    As my 10m antenna was available, I decided to go on 10m WSPR with 500mW
    from the W5OLF beacon. So far today the only spots of me are by local G4KPX (14km), but at least this proves I am getting out!
    UPDATE 0935z: No further spots today.
