6m QRP FT8 (Tuesday)

My FT817ND is on 6m FT8. So far spotted by 4 stations in England and N.Ireland.

UPDATE 1338z:  Now 8 stations spotting me.

UPDATE 1359z:   I am intrigued by the spots regularly over 450km on 6m FT8.  I am wondering if this is troposcatter or random aircraft reflection somewhere over the paths. One only has to have a single aircraft somewhere on the path at the right spot for 15 seconds. In reality, with military and civil aircraft, this is highly probable in several hours.

UPDATE 1457z:  11 stations have spotted me with the furthermost OZ9QV (861km).

UPDATE 1912:. QRT soon.  12 stations have spotted me today.
