It never fails! A CQ (2.5W to the big-wheel antenna) was copied by 3 stations including 2 in Cornwall. It seems Cornwall is nearly always within reach. I suspect this is my limit under "no lift" conditions on 2m FT8. With SSB or CW I'd struggle to get half as far!
On 2m FT8 RX, just 2 spots so far - a G in Kent and GM4FVM (428km).
I shall probably return to 10m FT8 later.
UPDATE 0936z: 9 stations spotted in 3 countries so far today on 2m FT8 RX.
UPDATE 1021z: 15 stations in 5 countries so far today on 2m FT8 RX.
UPDATE 1149z: Now 19 stations in 6 countries spotted today on 2m FT RX.
UPDATE 1530z: Now 35 stations in 7 countries spotted today on 2m FT8 RX.
