Sunspots and 10m propagation - Sunday April 19th 2015

Sunspot number has climbed to 114 (K=2) and 10m propagation is expected to be "good" which is the first time for weeks.

This morning my 500mW 10m WSPR is being copied by locals G4IKZ (18km) and G4KPX (14km) but no DX stations yet. I am very hopeful that USA stations will spot me later on 10m WSPR and was hopeful of some decent 10m DX reports this morning too.

UPDATE  1227z:  I was surprised and disappointed to get no DX spots at all on 10m WSPR this morning. Although I still hope for some USA spot later, I am beginning to doubt this. Is it just getting too late in the spring, or have people gone down a few bands?

UPDATE 1320z:  Still only locals spotting me on 10m WSPR - very disappointing
