Today, I have moved to 6m FT8. The last time I tried this band,
activity was
way down on 2m FT8. Already, in just a few minutes, 4 Gs have been spotted plus an ON. Things look promising as if there are now more stations active. As the Es season progresses, I expect a lot more will get on 6m FT8.
UPDATE 1346z: 9
unique UK stations spotted so far on 6m FT8 today.
UPDATE 1444z: So far today 17 different UK stations spotted on 6m FT8. Best DX spotted is
M0AIA (204km).
UPDATE 1600z: Es?
EA1AF (1263km) spotted on 6m FT8 earlier. As the Es season develops, I expect we'll see lots of 6m FT8 from Europe and further.
UPDATE 1958z: Soon be time to go QRT. In the end 23
uniques in 3 countries spotted with the V2000 vertical omni antenna on 6m FT8 RX today. Activity on 6m FT8 is rising, probably the promise of Es.
