There are more stations monitoring than TX'ing, with my small setup I have had 119 unique spots in the last week best being just over 2000km (which is great) but stations rcvd here is only 41 over the same week. Best being EA8. > Is there another MF mode that has a wider selection of stations? JT65, JT9, > FT8 for example? I am game to try any mode.

Sadly WSPR seems to be the main mode, it is a shame that more OP's do not try Opera, there is very low activity with that mode sadly. Maybe we should have some JT or similar activity nights again?? Look forward to spotting your WSPR TX again soon. 73 Colin - G6AVK -- Fedora 27 Beta (Twenty Seven) Registered Linux user number #342953
