My QRP 10m WSPR beacon has been on since 1115z.
UPDATE 1232z: No spots of me. I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that 10m WSPR is rarely worth the effort.
UPDATE 1341z: Just EA1FAQ (1249km) spotting me today.
UPDATE 1850z: 13 stations spotting me around Europe. WSPR gets me spotted around the planet, but I always get far more spots on 6m FT8. I get the feeling that if the noise floor is poor it is harder for the RXing station with WSPR. Signals are buried deeper in the noise. QRT soon.

Looking at WPRSnet map there are loads of stations on 10M???
Yes, there are plenty on WSPR still, but I increasingly question whether with my low power I would be better off with FT8 at higher power knowing FT8 needs a higher S/N than WSPR.
