DL/PA2PME — FT8 activity observed at SO8OO

DXCC entity inferred from callsign: Fed. Rep. of Germany

Receiver-side FT8 activity involving DL/PA2PME, decoded by SO8OO in southeastern Poland. 97 FT8 messages attributed to this token as transmitter, on 20m, across 3 UTC dates in the available aggregate history. Observed between 2026-08-25 and 2026-08-27.

These are automated observations at the SO8OO receiver, not an official contact log. Times are UTC. Attribution follows decoded FT8 message structure: CQ uses the first token and directed-looking messages use the second. Free text that resembles a directed message can be attributed imperfectly. Summary S/N reflects propagation plus SO8OO receiver, antenna and local-noise conditions. Counts are not adjusted for monitoring outages; transmissions that were not decoded are absent. Inferred entity and location data may be inaccurate for portable, remote or special-event operation.

SO8OO decoded 97 FT8 messages attributed to DL/PA2PME as the transmitting token by decoded message structure across 3 UTC dates in the available aggregate history. The largest monitored-band total was 20 m (100%). Most decodes (98%) fell within the six-hour window 10:00-16:00 UTC. Received S/N was mixed across SO8OO's weak, moderate and strong ranges; the estimated median was -12 dB.

SO8OO display ranges among successful decodes: weak (≤ -16 dB) 25, moderate (-15 to -9 dB) 54, strong (≥ -8 dB) 18.

WSJT-X defines S/N reports against a 2,500 Hz reference noise bandwidth. The ranges above are SO8OO receiver-side display categories, not official WSJT-X classes, transmitter-power measurements or estimates of how easy the station is to hear elsewhere. Statistics include only successful decodes on SO8OO's monitored FT8 channels; transmissions that were not decoded are absent.

Attributed messages by UTC hour

Rolling 90-day UTC chart window. Counts follow decoded message structure: the first token for CQ, or the second token in a directed-looking message.

Observed FT8 exchanges

S/N cells show: decoded at SO8OO / report transmitted by the counterpart. An observed exchange is not a QSL or an official logbook confirmation.
