No Japanese here on 160m FT8

So, the evening passed and not a single Japanese station spotted on 1.908MHz FT8. Seeing how every time I go on 160m FT8 I spot North Americans this surprised me, as I expected to see at least one. What surprised me was the high number of Europeans on FT8 in that part of the band.

Later, more in hope than expectation, I shall probably revert to 10m FT8 RX on 28.074MHz.

    If you see European stations responding to Japanese stations on 1840KHz there should be a chance to at least receive one on 1908KHz. However propagation is variable and not every day is the same. I hope you will try again another time. 73, Bas
