472kHz disappointment overnight
Last night, 472kHz WSPR was disappointing here. Just 6 stations spotted me with best spot one from DL3GAK (823km) and only 8 spots of others by me with best DX spotted here being IW4DXW (1190km). Maybe it is just me, but I get the feeling interest in the band is waning. Perhaps many have changed to a different mode?

I think several people are trying JT9 to communicate rather than simply beaconing. That may account for declining WSPR activity. I’ve been stuck at 13 countries received for quite some time, and several of those haven’t been heard for a long time e.g. Croatia, Poland, Switzerland.
I hope to be transmitting using ground probes some time in the next 2 to 3 weeks.
