I have a multi-band FT8 skimmer. It skims 7 bands from 160M-15M (excluding 60M).
I converted the skimmer to V2.0.0 yesterday about this time. Ordinarily, my
V1.9.1 spot rate was about 10,000-12,000 spots per day. In the last 24 hours my
V2.0.0 spot rate is 7700/day.
Marvelous bit of actual data vs speculation and anecdote. Will be interesting
to see how it increases over the next couple of weeks.
So...Either there are a huge amount of new FT8 users running V2.0.0, or users
are converting to the new version at a very satisfyingly rapid rate.
Pretty amazing for a release 2 days old.
Indeed. Given the speed with which FT8 was initially adopted (literally
just a few weeks), I'm not surprised that the user community is agile.
