Sunspots and 10m - Monday March 2nd 2015

Yesterday was dire(ish) on 10m.   Let us hope today is better.   My 500mW 10m WSPR beacon has been on for 20 minutes, but only being spotted l.ocally so far.

Sunspot number today is 66 (not bad) and 10m propagation is expected to be "fair".

UPDATE 1000z:   I see 4X1RF (3519km) has spotted me.
 .
UPDATE 1130z:   4X1RF has spotted my 500mW 10m WSPR beacon 4 times so far this morning. He is, so far, the only DX station to copy me.  It seems pretty quiet.    

UPDATE 1212z:   4X1RF has now spotted me 5 times today so far. No other DX spots received today.

UPDATE 1410z:   4X1RF has now spotted me 8 times today so far.  Still no transatlantic spots received though. I am beginning to think the long afternoon openings on 10m to the USA are ending.
