8m experiment (Sunday)

As we have someone staying, I am being sociable and staying off the radio, so 8m QRP FT8 TX is very unlikely today. Sociable is a concept I shall have to learn, HI.

I heard the EI1KNH beacon CW identifier around 16:45utc today - Sunday 14 Aug. Very brief -popped out of the noise, identified in CW, and disappeared again.

Sound like MS Keith?

Possibly - I checked the 10m and 6m FT8 frequencies immediately after hearing the beacon but no activity on either band at that time.

This possibly lends some credence to the idea that propagation on 8m does not necessarily coincide with the same conditions on other bands.

Keith
