Hi Stefan,
Well, I was thinking of the F6CNI reception of VK1DSH when I posted
this on the RSGB list :-) The WSPR activity day is now over and it was
very successful, as it generated a great deal of participation,
including many newcomers. No super DX was achieved this time, but I
agree with you, we should expect miracles in the future! Last weekend
we had very bad QRN most of the time, so even crossing the pond to ZL
was harder than usual. You can't predict the conditions, but such is
life!
The reports coming in about the event are positive, so expect more of
these to be held in the future.
73, Dimitris
