Just got my first 137.5kHz WSPR report from G6ALB in th= e next=20 village 3km away. Andrew has a far from optimised set-up. So, in the= last week I=20 have been copied by 3 different stations:

G3XDV partial ID on QRSS3 at 62km, G3XIZ -=20 full ID on QRSS3 at 48km
G6ALB - full ID on WSPR at=20 3km

Although this may not sound impressive, to me it's a= very=20 encouraging start considering the station, micropower and 20m spaced= earth=20 electrode "antenna".

A picture of the QRSS3 beacon and the TX= transverter=20 used for WSPR is attached.
