70cm FT8

I managed one 70cm FT8 QSO today. I had the TS2000X on 70cm randomly and answered a CQ. That was around 50 miles out to the southwest across the Pennines, so not so bad for my loft 70cm Big Wheel and with the rig set to 10W.

A little later I put out a CQ, no replies but it did indicate I was heard in Wales at 78 miles and Northern Ireland at 179 miles.
