10m FT8 RX again

Once again, I have my 10FT8R RX turned on connected to my (poor) indoor loop antenna. I am monitoring 10m FT8. It was turned on at 0833z.

UPDATE 1258z: Just one European spotted so far today 9A6R (1542km).

UPDATE 1420z: So far today, 5 stations spotted. I really need that outside antenna!

UPDATE 1725z: 8 stations spotted so far.

UPDATE 2110z: 17 stations spotted me today. QRT shortly.

    Hi Roger,

    I've found my loft dipoles are working reasonably well with the IC-705 and FT8. I've put up a 20m along the length of the loft and then wired in parallel a 10m inverted V across the loft. Some Es on 10m this afternoon, worked a couple of EA's and one OK; looking forward to things opening uop a bit more over the next few weeks.
