Yesterday was one month of my uBITx in operation and it's been
100% FT8.? I posted my FT8 initial first week comments in:
???? /g/BITX20/message/46494
After one month, I've had 252 FT8 contacts.? This has been with
a modest random length end-fed 59 ft antenna with one end up in
a tree.? I've worked 80m, 60m, 40m, 30m, 20m, 17m, & 15 meters.
Almost all contacts have been 4 watts or less.? The results have
been great.? It includes 45 of 50 US states confirmed toward WAS
(I'm still trying to nail down those last 5 states).?? It also
includes New Zealand, Australia, Russia AS, Samoa, Cuba, Japan,
and Canada.
So, I've been very happy with FT8.? I'll be even happier when
the subspot cycle turns up.....:)
