Despite the low sunspot number, today people in the USA were spotting my 500mW WSPR beacon early. KC2GMM (5562km) was the first today at 1210z. This is one of the earliest yet. Even with a sunspot number of just 23, the 10m band is open to the USA. Promising for future weak peaks.
UPDATE 1415z: Plenty of USA and Canadian stations currently spotting my 10m 500mW WSPR beacon.
UPDATE 1645z: 10m is still wide open to the USA and Canada.]
UPDATE 2006z: The transatlantic opening is still going strong but I shall have to go QRT as I need the same antenna for 40m. KC2GMM (5562km) was the last stateside station that copied me, but I suspect I would have been heard by stateside stations later.
