6m 5W FT8 (Friday)

My gear was turned on at about 0846z.  So far, spotted by 12 Europeans, presumably Es. 

Incidentally,yesterday I forgot to turn on the PSU so I assume yesterday it was 50% of 5W, so about 2.5W FT8.  Not that I noticed!

6m QRP FT8 (Thursday)

 

52 stations have spotted my 5W since arriving home mid-afternoon. Most were Es. See map.

What a disappointment!

 This was my grandson in 2010 when I had hopes of him becoming an electronics engineer like his  grandfather. I failed!
