160m FT8 RX

From about 2015z, I have been on 160m FT8 RX using the earth-electrode "antenna" in the ground. As usual, there were lots of Europeans spotted, plus a few Asians and Africans, 128 stations in total. WU1ITU (4831km) was the first North American spotted at 2151z.
Stations spotted so far on 160m FT8 RX this evening

    Hello Roger, just a tip from me. Try listening FT8 on 1908KHz in the evening at 20-22 UTC. You have a chance to receive Japan. Would be a nice next goal to listen to. I made my first FT8 QSO yesterday evening with Japan TX on 1840 RX 1908. 73, Bas

    Thanks Bas. I shall give this a try! I have heard plenty of stations calling and working Japan - but of course not the other end.
