On TX, my V2000 omni has a very high SWR, so I am RX only. After a very brief check on 10m FT8 RX I am on 6m FT8 RX with 31 stations spotted at 1124z, with the furthermost A45XR (5843km) in Oman. Well, this omni antenna still works fine on RX.
UPDATE 1450z: 112 stations spotted on 6m FT8 RX today.
UPDATE 2144z: 658 stations in 4 continents spotted today on 6m FT8 RX. Nothing yet from South America. It is probably worth leaving the setup running overnight in case North or South America comes through. This already a great day on 6m with an omni antenna that is not working properly.

There was some doubt it was really the signal from YS1AG. Some joker did make fake calls from France or Spain. Also seen XE2JS.....but turning the beam to the west he was gone. Turning it back to the south he was there. Various stations reported the same. Some stations reported the signal from YS1AG came from 100gr direction (east). However, YS1AG was on at that moment and transmitting. So....it could be...73, Bas
Thanks Bas. My bet is a pirate.
