Sunday the 17th of November 2019 was an interesting day on 28 MHz. In the morning, there was a modest Sporadic-E opening in Europe with a number of stations being heard on FT8.
The two signals of note were...
5R8VX in Madagascar at 9050 kms. Anything from the Indian Ocean is always of interest on 28 MHz.
F5MYK/MM in the South Atlantic. These are the FT8 signals that I heard...
144945 -18 -0.1 1733 ~ CQ F/MM IH03
145115 -16 -0.1 1734 ~ <...> F5MYK/MM RR73
145215 -15 -0.1 1732 ~ CQ F5MYK/MM
145245 -16 -0.1 1732 ~ CQ F/MM IH03
145315 -17 -0.1 1733 ~ CQ F5MYK/MM
145715 -15 -0.1 1730 ~ EA1AER
It looks as if the strange call was enough to stop it being accepted by the PSKReporter website, hence the lack of a line on the display. An unusual one to hear on the band.
