8m experiment (Saturday)

As usual, I am on 40.680 MHz USB dial QRP FT8.  Already spotted very strongly by EA3ERE (1153km) in northern Spain.

My usual pattern is to be on for about one hour. let the rig thoroughly cool and then come on again afterwards. It would seem Es allows modest QRP stations, like mine, to enjoy the fun.

It is now about 0931z.

UPDATE 1230:  Still just EA3ERE spotting me and nobody spotted here. Now QRT as the rig cools.
