Later today I expect to be on 8m FT8 TX on 40.680 MHz USB dial. Yesterday I was spotted again by EI9KP (649km). If the Es is like yesterday I may be spotted by others.
UPDATE 0637z: TX turned on.
UPDATE 0820z : Spotted by 3 EU stations by Es.
UPDATE 1000z: As you can see by the comment below Ken G4APB has received his T&I 8m licence now and has been active. I am not sure how many UK 8m permits have been granted. The KST chat (50 and 70 MHz) seems useful for skeds etc..
