Thread-topic: LF: EA5DOM back to MF, but QRP at the moment
 
Hi Graham, MF

Much worse conditions last night. I even checked the RMS voltage over 50R load
to see if the attenuator was not working correctly, but there were the 11mW

Only two WSPR spots from Andy at limit

2015-12-02 23:24         EA5DOM          0.475610        -32     0       IM98wn 
         0.01    F1AFJ   JN06ht          919     4 
2015-12-02 21:24         EA5DOM          0.475610        -30     0       IM98wn 
         0.01    F1AFJ   JN06ht          919     4 

I saw the report from G3XKR on PskReporter but nothing via Opera server
Probably due to the old software version used by G3XKR ??

Anyway VERY good Rx there ! :-)

Will keep at 11mW for the moment
