80m FT8 RX

In all, 932 stations spotted last evening and overnight on 80m FT8 RX on what must be one of the most stupid antenna and ground systems on the planet, proving that for FT8 RX almost anything can be used. In my case this was the coax to my 2m big-wheel, and a mains plug ground, resonated via a ferrite rod ATU on the bench.
