Opening on 28 MHz - Sun 26th April 2020

Sunday 26th April 2020. Another good day for Sporadic-E on the 28 MHz band although not as intense as the previous day. The map shows what I heard on FT8 when I wasn't using the radio elsewhere.

Beacons... I heard 13 beacons on 28 MHz during the day which is a sign of good conditions.

The unusual one was F5SN/B in the east of France which runs just 3 watts into a dipole. That was a new beacon for me and it looks from the Dx Cluster as if it may have been off for a few years.
