Thursday 30th April 2020. This was another day where there was another big opening on 28 MHz to Europe and beyond.
A total of 734 stations in 56 countries were heard on FT8 on the band.
As the map above shows, there was a reasonable opening to South America and the Caribbean. I heard 23 stations from Brazil alone which might the highest number so far this year.
Two stations from the USA were also heard which follows on from the single US reception report the previous day. These multi-hop trans-Atlantic openings will become more common as we move further into May and June.
Beacons..... The number of beacons I log during the day on 28 MHz is usually a sign of how good conditions were...

Other than SB7W/B in Sweden, most of the rest are the usual beacons.
These are the stations on FT8 that were over 2,500 kms...
