Amazingly, EA8BFK(2880km) has spotted my 500uW (0.5mW) 25 times today to 1717z. Nobody else has spotted me.

Baker at work - NOT amateur radio
630m QRP WSPR overnight
A slightly better session with 12 spots of my 10mW ERP but still no real DX. I noticed at one point I was the only UK station active on TX. Yet again it was the same stations - no new stations for some while.

Busy - NOT amateur radio
In the last few days, we have seen all our grandchildren and had 2 staying here. The photo was of our granddaughters yesterday.

6m QRP FT8 (Friday)
Bread making - NOT amateur radio
Today, he wanted to make some bread. As I write, it is rising before going in the oven. The photo shows him mid-way through the process.
UPDATE 1540z: They tasted as good as they looked.
Theory torn up? - more success with 500uW (0.5mW) 10m WSPR today
Already today, EA8BFK (2880km) has spotted my 500uW (0.5mW) 10m WSPR 24 times, even though A=12 and K=2. It is 1635z. According to my theory, I was not expecting spots today.
This afternoon, I was also spotted by a station in Russsia. I think it is at least 8 stations that have spotted my ultra-QRPP 10m WSPR.
The map shows the spots with 500uW (0.5mW) 10m WSPR over the last few days. Who needs high power? 😀 The map is from WSPR Rocks by Phil VK7JJ.
