As we were out for much of the day, I have not been on the air today on any band. This must be the first time in several months. I shall probably be on
10m WSPR or FT8 tomorrow.

Stations spotted on 70cm RX
yesterday with the 2m omni!FT8 activity on 70cm has really increased
especially in activity contests. Although I spent most of the time
yesterday on RX, I had a couple of QSOs and was spotted as far away as The Netherlands despite using just 2.5W and the big-wheel omni antenna for 2m!! Stations spotting my 2.5W 70cm TX
FT8 to the 2m omni antenna
