UPDATE 1920z: 15 stations have spotted me at 100mW. See map. Now QRT at 100mW.
UPDATE 1930z: Now at 6W and signing "De G3XBM JO02" hoping this appears on PSKreporter.

10m 100mW FT8 (Saturday)
This morning I am trying 10m FT8 at 100mW. There is far more chance of being clobbered by a stronger station, but it's fun to try. I have my IC-705 set to 1% power on HF. My gear was turned on at about 0845z.UPDATE 1149z: 3 spots of me. Furthermost is 4X5KS (3545km). Who needs power!!? 52 stations spotted here.
UPDATE 1403z: 6 spots of my 100mW 10m FT8.

i got your signal also around 14:30 utc in km17. I didnt know you were beaconing with 0.1w so I tried to call you back with 0.6w (for around 5 mins) and got no reply. Then i checked your blog to see that you made experiments. 73 de sv8gxc george
Thanks George. I am currently not looking for 2-way contacts. It would be good to be able to send something like "BCN de G3XBM" rather than CQ and be recognised by PSKreporter.
