27/06/2019 50MHz FT8 Activity from PSKR M0BEW

Opening into JA .
Path appeared a lot better for the G's located to the south.
From IO82 I was only able to hit the far south western area on JA.

Very very slow.
Everything to like here, but doesn't deliver, really poor activity level.
The majority of which is taken by FT8 being the flavour of the band now.
ODX = LZ1QI.

QRV during Sunday am only.
Some good Es. However feeling light on mults through not being on long enough.
Will be some big scores for sure.

Missed 10 mins or so towards the end. UK signals seemed a little down.
Seemed like the Es was favouring the north more than to IO82.
No PA, OZ, DL, ON, GI or EI etc.
I presume the NA paths available on FT8 drawing activity away from phone.

TS590SG Dipole, Verts.
Showing some support for the first 40m qso party.
Didn't setup a config beforehand so had to use a RSGB Sprint and correct the file afterwards.
Propagation within 3-400km was awkward making G qsos hard work.
Otherwise normal from elsewhere.
At this point of the cycle, with this start time, this is one for the ops on the outskirts.

This was more of an exercise to make some noise on 50MHz on a mode other than digital.
I don't think the condidtions were as poor as the activity suggested.
Quite slow going, but still qsos with 2 x 5B4, YO, LZ with a mix of HA, IK, DL and G.
No idea of score or even how its scored. Paperlogged to add later.
