Ten metres is open

I decided to use WSPR to look for signs of propagation on the 10m band and found there is quite a bit of activity at the moment. From my location in northern England the propagation appears mostly to be into Germany, France and Italy but some stations in southern Europe were receiving signals from FR1GZ (Réunion, in the Indian Ocean).

I ventured on to PSK31 and managed to log a contact with Sylvain, F4FRQ in the eastern part of France. However no other stations were seen or heard and I went back to WSPR monitoring so I could spend my time on something more useful.
