Actually, I was going to go on 6m MSK144 RX, but the frequencies recommended in WSJT-X v1.8 are not those I expected, so I have returned to FT8 instead. I see that M1BXF (14km) copied my brief CQ, but mostly I am RX only.
UPDATE 1925z: Best DX on 6m FT8 RX this evening is G8AQP (123km). This is probably aircraft reflection, although it could be tropo.
UPDATE 2035z: G3YDY (65km) is the latest on 6m FT8 RX. I think I'm too late for Es.
UPDATE 2118z: Although I have spotted no new stations in the last hour, I think I'll remain on 6m FT8 RX overnight.
Hi Roger,
ReplyDeleteThere seem to be a good number of us active with MSK144 for meteor scatter on 50.280 still, despite the supposed changes to the bandplans, or what the 'recommended' frequencies in WSJT-X say.
With the Perseid meteor shower only days away, its worth having a go with

For now I am on 6m FT8 RX on 50.313MHz. Thanks Martin.
