10m QRPP WSPR (Sunday)

Today I have high hopes for my 500uW 10m QRPP WSPR. So far, no spots.

Watching for migrants - NOT amateur radio

 In the next few days we usually see the return from Africa of swallows which winter in South Africa. This is a very long way. They have already been seen in Devon. I shall keep scanning the skies .

Also about now we hear chiffchaffs calling. Some stay all year and some migrate.

More signs of spring - NOT amateur radio

 The green near our village is a carpet of buttercups and daisies.

Worst night on 630m QRP WSPR overnight

Last night was the worst I have experienced this season. Just 9 stations spotted me and no real DX.

Should I now move on?  Another week maybe.

 Amazingly, EA8BFK(2880km) has spotted my 500uW (0.5mW) 25 times today to 1717z. Nobody else has spotted me.

Baker at work - NOT amateur radio

Yesterday I showed a photo of our grandson making  bread 🍞 . This collage shows the various stages. It tasted very good 

630m QRP WSPR overnight

 A slightly better session with 12 spots of my 10mW ERP but still no real DX. I noticed at one point I was the only UK station active on TX. Yet again it was the same stations - no new stations for some while.
