I thought I'd have a 1w day to day, so in addition to my 1w 11m JS8 adventures, I have been running 1W on WSPR on 10m on the long wire. Whilst it does tune on 10m, its not the most ideal antenna for the band, but got some surprising contacts. :-)

I thought I'd switch from MSK144 on 10M to try WSPR. Literally switched modes, retuned and reset the frequencies and ticked upload spots.

I'm getting decodes but using JTDX they aren't appearing on PSKreporter. Am I missing something obvious or is there more to getting them online?
my friend grafter, seems like you are using a very offensive tone in the reply.
