This morning my little 500mW 10m WSPR-AXE-CW beacon was copied in Australia by VK6JI (14439km) at 1026z at -26dB S/N. I thoroughly recommend this tiny single PCB WSPR unit that needs no PC. It fits in an Altoids mint tin. This is F2 propagation.
Yet again, I am also trying 6m WSPR with 1W ERP, but so far with no luck again. I am ever hopeful!
UPDATE 1615z: Still an absolute blank on 6m WSPR. Will remain on for a few more hours.
UPDATE 1704z: ND6M (6914km) currently spotting me on 10m. Pretty sure he will not be the last USA station to spot my 500mW.
UPDATE 1854z: W3CSW (5886km) was spotting me at 1844z. Even he may not be the last this evening. Conditions are good still this evening on 10m WSPR.
UPDATE 1912z: W3CSW (5886km) does appear to be the last USA station to copy me from the USA. No more spots since 1844z.
Hello Roger, although you didn't get any spot on 6m there was some propagation. My neighbourstation PA0O was spotted 10 times on 6m today by KD4YDD. 73, Bas
ReplyDeleteSure it was 6m? Yesterday this USA station was reporting the WRONG band!
ReplyDeleteTthen it must be a wrong band spot...73, Bas
