Sunday morning 50MHz MS was not a whole lot different to Saturday, with the Southern Delta Aquariids meteor shower only producing short burns and few good quality Qs.

Worked were:
Brad VK2QO @ 2050z (RS51) 826km

Peter VK5PJ @ 2143z (RS55) 1547km

Heard was also (and for a special mention)
Brian VK4EK 676km

Later in the day a Sporadic E opening also allowed me to complete my first ever 50MHz WSPR contact with Glenn VK7AB:

2011-07-03 04:38 VK7AB 50.294581 +8 0 QE37ne 5 VK4CZ QG62lp 1798 19
2011-07-03 0504 11 -0.3 50.294473 4 VK4CZ QG62 40


And since then I've been running WSPR across a range of HF bands.... with 20m (currently running) producing the best results as can be seen with the following screen grab.
