At about 1840z, I QSYed to 15m. So far (at 1851z) 11 stations have spotted me, all "across the pond".
UPDATE 2102z: 51 stations have spotted my QRP 15m FT8 this evening. See map.
Simple QRP projects, 10m, 8m, 6m, 4m, FT8, 160m, WSPR, LF/MF, sub-9kHz, nanowaves and other random stuff, some not related to amateur radio.

This last weekend we said "goodbye" to BST for another year. For a short while (only!) the mornings seem a bit lighter, but it gets dark far earlier.
We adapt and get used to cosy evenings with the curtains drawn. I enjoy the dark evenings, but prefer the light evenings we get in spring and summer. Sadly, these seem to last a very short time.
Whilst on 8m, I put my 10m WSPR beacon on. So far today, 58 stations have spotted my QRP.
UPDATE 1553z: 67 stations have spotted me with the vast majority being "across the pond".
UPDATE 1825z: QRT. 75 stations spotted me today.
The photo shows the shack currently. As you can see, the QDX is very tiny. The box it is sitting on is the 472kHz transverter.
It is too early to tell, but there are tentative signs that the Middle East is growing tired of war. I certainly hope a just peace can be forged that is good for all.
My 8m QRP FT8 was turned on about 1000z. G9PUV (158km), EI2IP (607km) and S57TW (1236km) spotted on RX and my signal has been spotted by 4X1TI (3633km).
You get the distinct impression that 8m has "come of age".
UPDATE 1048z: 3 stations have spotted me today on 8m QRP FT8 TX: G4FKI (60km), S51WX (1296km) and 4X1TI (3633km).
UPDATE 1144z: A QSO with ZR1ADI (9777km) on 8m QRP FT8 earlier. The map shows where my 2.5W 8m FT8 has been spotted this morning.They have several flushes and look good at the moment with several in flower and some in bud.
