10m WSPR TX

This is a long shot and if I get any spots on 10m WSPR TX today, I shall be amazed. I am on TX (500mW, 100%, randomised frequencies) on 10m WSPR for a change, using the stand alone WSPR beacon. The main rig, PC and PSU are off. There are probably few people on 10m WSPR, especially outside the Es season and at sunspot minimum.

UPDATE 1554z: Well, there's a surprise! No spots!

UPDATE 1930z: Still no WSPR spots. I shall QSY to 1.84MHz FT8 RX after the East Cambs 2m FM net at 2000z..

  1. 4th March 2019 - Very poor today. Listened all day on 10m FT8 and heard just one station from PA.

    A combination of poor propagation and a lack of stations on 10m. I would imagine WSPR would be very poor outside the Summer Sporadic-E season.
