6m WSPR - quiet so far

On 6m, no evidence here yet of any Es or F2 DX.  G4BRK (134km), G4NRG (58km) and G8EPQ (77km) in the logs this morning.  Early in the morning still, so plenty of time to catch those fleeting Es openings on 6m WSPR.

UPDATE 1604z:   6m Es seen today with spots from CT and DL, although I would class the Es openings as "modest" affairs.  Certainly, the band has not been wide open here.

UPDATE 1650z:   No further 6m Es seen, so far. Maybe later?

The strange thing about WSPR is that it sometimes seems to be inversely related to what's going on on SSB or other modes.

Yesterday (15/05) saw 6m VERY wide open for over an hour across Europe on SSB, with modest openings to southern Europe today.

Of course many of us (me included) abandon WSPR when conditions are good.

Roger, I think that can be the only logical explanation!
