[Lowfer] WSPR experiment

[Mike.WE0H]

Is the contest still going on? 80 meters closed down at 8:30am here. You 
were in there until then and after that not a peep out of anyone. 160m 
would have a much further groundwave than 80m but if that phone contest 
is still going on, the band maybe plugged up with high powered SSB from 
end to end.
