At the moment, I am concentrating on 6m FT8 RX with the V2000 vertical omni. So far, mostly EU stations spotted plus 4Z5AV (3633km).
UPDATE 0958z: 186 stations spotted so far this morning on 6m FT8 RX.
UPDATE 1245z: 365 6m FT8 stations spotted so far today on RX. Although I get full power on FM, for some reason there is no output on DIG with the FT817ND. On the FT991A all is fine. It worked fine before. I suspect finger trouble, so I shall again later.
UPDATE 1635z: Mystery solved! It appears the FT817ND produces no output above 2.4kHz audio (this may be 2.7kHz) whereas the FT991A produces output to audio frequencies to almost 3kHz. When I set the audio to a much lower frequency it produced plenty of output on 6m. I found this be accident.
