Often I forget to submit my entry into this UKAC session. With my pathetic score I shall never even be close to winning, but it is good to show my support.
It is great to see the activity. The "real" stations were working some serious DX.

6m QRP FT8 (Wednesday)
Just 3 stations in the UK spotting me so far today.
UPDATE 0940z: Just 5 UK stations spotting me.
UPDATE 1445z: 16 stations have spotted me today, including several in mainland Europe. See map.
10m QRP WSPR (Wednesday)
My 500mW beacon has been on since just before breakfast. Just EA8BFK (2880km) spotting me multiple times. I assume this is F2 propagation.
UPDATE 1427z: 16 stations have spotted me today. A lot of these are in the USA. See table.
UPDATE 1855z: 23 stations have spotted me today. See table.
WSPY and 10FT8R
One of my Facebook memories today was the circuit for my 10m WSPR RX on which my 10m FT8 RX was based. See my website for details.

Malta cathedral - NOT amateur radio
Most churches on continental Europe seem highly decorated - not to my taste.
6m QRP FT8 (Tuesday)
My 2.5W 6m FT8 has been on for the last few hours. Spotted by 7 stations (mostly England) with the furthermost DK8NE/6 (702km). See map.
10m 500mW WSPR (Tuesday)
Since returning home again from Malta this afternoon, I have been on 10m QRP WSPR with my little beacon. Already spotted by 5 stations with the furthermost the German research station in Antarctica.
70cm activity contest
This is this evening starting at 1900z. I usually go on for a short time with 10W to the 2m big-wheel.
UPDATE 1956z: I did not stay on long, but worked 3 stations with the furthermost G4CLA (105km). It was a miserable evening with lots of rain.
