Comments: 
Since tower construction will not start until this fall, I had not planned
to
get on with my small temporary 6M antenna, but the huge buzz about the new
FT8
addition to the WSJT-X suite for marginal E?s induced me to try it out. It
could decode stations more than 20 dB below the noise, and I worked quite a
few
double hop contacts that would only show up for a few minutes before fading
into
oblivion. Awesome!
