My W5OLF 10m WSPR beacon was turned on about 0905z. So far (at 0915z) no spots.
UPDATE 1541z: Most of my spots today look like locals or via F2, with an absence of Es.
UPDATE 1600z: Some signs (at last!) of some Es.
UPDATE 1645z: I am tempted to try with a much smaller ERP. I might try 10mW ERP and see what reports result. I need to make an external attenuator for the FT817ND. Maybe tomorrow. I cannot use my 10m WSPR beacon as it is pre-loaded with 0.5W and cannot be changed.
UPDATE 2120z: QRT on a day when we did not see Es here. Well, maybe one Italian was briefly Es. In all, 8 unique station spots today.
