10m 500mW WSPR TX (Saturday)

My QRP W5OLF beacon was on all night. Clearly there is F2 propagation with several spots from the Canary Is.

UPDATE 1037z: Still just spots from the Canary Is..

UPDATE 1121z: Still just spots from the Canary Is.. At the peak these were -5dB S/N (27dB in hand when running 500mW) suggesting just uW would have been sufficient assuming a low local noise floor.

UPDATE 1652z:   20 stations have spotted me including 4 reports from Antarctica.

UPDATE 1744z:  22 stations have spotted me. Clearly there is E-W F2 to the USA.
