No more DX last night at 11mW
One spot from F5WK and many more from Andy F1AFJ
Maxi, EA5CV got a few at -28dB and being just 60Km away but with a sub optimal
Rx
No other EA station got copy
No Opera spots. Monitors were too far, probably
There were few TA spots across north atlantic. So, conditions were not bad
Will keep Txing at this power level untill finishing the PA install at terrace

Wellcome to the 11mW challenge, Clemens :-)
F5WK joined the party with just one spot but breaking the distance mark to
1192km
2015-12-01 20:24 EA5DOM 0.475608 -28 0 IM98wn
0.01 F5WK IN99ef 1192 355
Andy has 8 spots so far. And one as good as -20dB !!
2015-12-01 21:36 EA5DOM 0.475610 -20 0 IM98wn
0.01 F1AFJ JN06ht 919 4
You are at 1515Km. A real edge for such a weak signal ??

Hello Luis,

I'll give it a try tonight.
RX and WSPR are running now.
I know I can compete with DH5RAE and DJ0ABR regarding WSPR spots (RX-wise).
I'm also quite out in the sticks...
