Wow! That generated quite a few reports.
Thanks to the multitude of stations for the suscessful 'spots' forwarded to the WSPR database. The
list includes: GM4SLV, G3XVL, OR7T, K3SIW, G4JNT, AA1A, G3YPE, G4WGT, AA5AM, G7AQA, DL4YHF, W3NF,
NW5R, F4DTL, M0LMH, K9FH and VE7BDQ.
Also thanks to W1TAG, VE3EAR, M0BMU and VA7JX for their reports and anyone else that took the time
to look. Hope I didn't forgot anyone.
The earliest reception was by GM4SLV at 44 minutes before local sunset here. With clear skies the
sun was still shining bright at the time. Unfortunately, the transmitter was shut down prematurely
at 0757Z so there wasn't a chance to check propagation past sunrise in most of EU - especially at
GM4SLV's location with a sunrise at about 0830Z.
In order to further 'probe' the T/A sunset / sunrise propagation extremes, WE2XGR/2 will transmit
during two periods tonight. The first period will be 2030 - 2330Z and then again at 0630 - 0930Z.
Reports, especially 'first in' and 'last out' would be appreciated. If anyone would like the times
periods extended please let me know.
Thanks again to everyone participating in the tests.
