10m 6.3mW WSPR TX (Sunday)

At about 0814z, my 10m WSPR beacon was turned on with my 15dB attenuator directly on the beacon output so I had about 6.3mW output. At the antenna the power (allowing for cable loss) was less than 6mW.

UPDATE 0910z:  Spotted by 10 stations in Europe, probably Es.  I would expect to be spotted by several stations, but less often, as some spots will be too weak.  By the way, it will still report me using 200mW as this is pre-programmed in the beacon, even though I have now got an extra 15dB attenuator in line.
