Shortly, I intend to try 6m FT8 again with 2.5W and the vertical V2000 omni antenna. At present I am on 630m QRP WSPR.
UPDATE 1336z: In tidying up the shack I destroyed the coax connection to my V2000 antenna used on 6m. I shall have to mend this later, although soldering is now quite hard for me. Moral: do not tidy up shacks! Mind you, I found things I had forgotten I had! 6 English stations had spotted me before disaster struck.
UPDATE 1402z: Coax mended. Back on 6m FT8. Now 8 English stations have spotted me.
UPDATE 1627z: 12 English stations have spotted me today.
UPDATE 1826z: 14 English stations have spotted me.
