Overnight I stayed on 6m FT8 RX but without success. My 5W FT8 TX was turned on before breakfast and has been spotted by Es already at 0700z.
UPDATE 1310z: Spotted by 247 stations on 6m QRP FT8, mostly Es. Yet again VO1SIX (3933km) has spotted me. I think this was again multi-hop Es. On 6m FT8 RX quite a few East Coast USA stations spotted. Probably E layer chordal hop? I don't buy the multi-hop Es in this case. The map shows the USA stations spotted here on 6m FT8 with the omni vertical.
UPDATE 2035z: Plenty of USA and Caribbean stations spotted here on 6m FT8 RX. Now QRT.
