Day off amateur radio
Posted: 10 Feb 2022 12:31 PM PST http://g3xbm-qrp.blogspot.com/2022/02/day-off-amateur-radio.html
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!!
