Via Dave, WW2R/G4FRE it was good to hear that yesterday, the WG2XPN 70MHz experimental beacon, run by Brian WA1ZMS was heard in Europe on 70.005.

The beacon was heard in GJ, I, DL and IS0 – at a distance of over 7300km. Jo, CT1HZE suggested that this could be as many 4 hops of Transatlantic Es.

Excellent DX!
