10m WSPR TX

There is quite a lot of Es around already today so I am quite hopeful that 10m WSPR will be productive later. Gear (500mW to the tiny indoor loop antenna) is turned on, but no spots yet.

UPDATE 0752z:  Already spots from 4 different stations, 3 by Es. This very early start bodes well for the day. Some Es spots are very strong e.g. OZ7IT has given me 0dB S/N  which implies he could copy me with 0.5uW (microwatts!!) on a noise free band and this is with me on the indoor loop!! There is a photo of the loop on the previous 6m post.

UPDATE 1824z: 10 different stations have, so far, spotted my 500mW 10m WSPR signal.

UPDATE 2045z:    QRT.
