I often monitor 2m FT8 and will automatically reply if I copy you.  I am in EN54sh.   Normally I have my beam pointed about 130 degrees...although right now it is still at 190 degrees following a rag chew with Ron W9ZIH on 222 and 1296.

Good morning, everyone!

 

I am on 2m trying to make my very first FT8 contact ever. I am running an ICOM 9700 with an Elk 2m/440L5 antenna -and also using MacLoggerDX.

 

All this is new to me (rig, antenna, logger, WSJT-X, FT8, etc.) so trying to learn while committing a few mistakes. I tried to contact WI0O and W0GHZ but was not able to complete the QSO due to some last-minute glitches on my side.

 

 

I will be monitoring for another few hours trying to make my first FT8 QSO.

Hi All -
