6m FT8 QRP (Sunday)

Just before 1100z, I turned on 6m FT8. After a short time (minutes) on 2.5W TX, I am RX only using the V2000 vertical omni antenna. So far, no spots on RX, but spotted by G0PQO (50km) on TX. 

It would be a pleasant surprise to spot anybody on 6m today. Although Es does occur, it is far less common at this time of year.

UPDATE 1335z:  Just 2 Gs spotted today on 6m FT8 RX. As 6m seems so poor, I shall probably QSY, probably to 10m FT8 RX.
