Once again I am on 10m WSPR with just 500uW (0.5mW) and I have already had 6 spots from EA8BFK (2880km) and one from Greece (a new country with ultra QRPP).
These last few days have been good. I must try to correlate this with solar conditions. I would expect to see some sort of relationship. I would not have thought these last few days were exceptional. Good, yes, but not exceptional.A reminder that my beacon is pre-programmed to report the power is 500mW even though it is just 500uW (0.5mW) during these tests.
I continue to be amazed.
It will be interesting trying ultra QRPP during the Es season.
UPDATE 1245z: Already 18 spots today. EA8BFK (2880km) has spotted me as strongly as -16dB S/N when I was running just 500uW suggesting 16dB weaker still might have been copied.
UPDATE 1730z: 22 spots of me today at 500uW including a new reporter in the USA, who received me strongly. Amazing!!
