    Echolink - SO quiet

    My Echolink now works, but I realise why I lost interest. Nobody seems to
    be on. I tried calling through the most promising repeaters in the UK and overseas before giving up. Nobody answered.

    Today, I return home after a few days with my brother. All being well, I
    hope to be on 8m TX on 40.680 MHz USB dial FT8 tomorrow.

    Early each month, I look forward to the updated information on solar data.
    My favourite site has not yet updated its data when I looked, but usually
    does so quite quickly.
