90 watts to a half size G5RV at about 3 metres above ground.

Very strong VE on SSB working a string of French Language operators, but couldn't make home hear me (yes, I can QSO en francaise)
Only new country today on #10m FT8 was Iceland

Suprisingly number of USA stations on #FT8 whose clocks are way out.
Not seen that before.

22 followers · 116 posts · Server mastodon.me.ukI've had an excellent couple of hours on #FT8 on #12m ( #24MHz ) this afternoon - great contacts across North America plus a few into South America from IO92 (Central England)
#10m ( #28MHz ) wasn't quite so strong or reliable.
