At about 1250z, my 6m QRP FT8 was turned on. So far, at 1255z, spotted by just 1 local G6KWA (22km).
UPDATE 1333z: Spotted by OH7PS (1698km) a burst of Es or even F2? I suppose it could have been random MS.
UPDATE 1417z: 2 locals have spotted me, 1 G further afield and one OH.

My wife took this photo of an old boat at Wicken Fen. We usually walk there, have a break in the cafe there and walk back.
We usually see Konik ponies, but we saw none.
It is only September, but I am inundated with emails urging me to book pubs meals for Christmas.

One of the major retailers in Cambridge often puts up Christmas decorations in October. I boycott them!!
My 500mW beacon was turned on at 0726z. So far,just spots from local G4KPX (14km).
Once again, I have QSYed to 630m WSPR RX with my earth-electrode "antenna" in the ground. So far, no spots.
The photo shows Trinity Street in Cambridge, UK. In the right foreground is a bookshop that has been a bookshop for centuries.
