Yet again on 2m FT8 (2.5W to the big-wheel omni)

At about 1015z, my 2m FT8 kit was turned on. So far, 2 stations are spotting me, with best DX a spot by F5APQ (180km). On RX just G3PFM (237km) so far and no QSOs.

David G0LRD, on the far side of Cambridge, has a screen grab showing what he copies on 2m FT8. This is quite useful to me as I can check all is OK. Dave kindly erected my 2m antenna some years ago.

UPDATE 1215z:  Already spotted by 7 stations with best DX spot being by GI6ATZ (479km). On RX 11 stations spotted so far.  Just 1 QSO.
