2m FT8 activity contest

Starting at 1900z is the RSGB organised 2m FT8 activity contest. At the moment I am RX only, although I might try TX with 2.5W FT8 with the big-wheel omni later.  So far, 35 stations in 6 countries spotted after 7 minutes!

UPDATE 1940z: 74 stations in 7 countries spotted. 1 QSO just now. RX only again as it is too crowded!

UPDATE 2110z:   96 stations in 9 countries spotted on 2m FT8 RX this evening and 3 QSOs. My signal was spotted by F1FPL (345km). Now QRT. Quite pleased with just 2.5W and the omni antenna.
