The WSPR 2 segment of 2200 m had more than just the two 5 watt
Experimental Service licensees (WH2XXP and WH2XND) in it today. WA9CGZ was
a new one for me, running the Amateur limit of 1 W at a distance of 786
km. At various times, KN5NJD showed up too; he's a mere 523 km away, but
was running only 5 milliwatts!

A _very_ few samples from the 200+ spots I just uploaded to WSPRnet this
evening. with my call and grid (KD4IDY, EM27kc) omitted in hopes of
fitting the rest of the info on a single line:

The Big Two continued uninterrupted through local sunset, although you'll
notice a decrease in the SNRr an hour or so before local sunset.
