2m Sporadic E Today.

 This was a bit of a surprise.

I had the radio running on 1297.5 and the second receiver on 144.300.

Suddenly I noticed SSB signals coming on, and when I checked it was a French station. I managed to work a QSO with my horizontal omnidirectional antenna, my Big Wheel.

I did hear some Spanish stations, too, but not strong enough to make any QSOs.

This season has been a bit below normal to me, but I did manage to make Es on 2m, after all. 

I do need a better antenna bit higher up, probably a small 4 element yagi on a rotator.
