PY5/PY2TIM — FT8 activity observed at SO8OO

DXCC entity inferred from callsign: Brazil

Receiver-side FT8 activity involving PY5/PY2TIM, decoded by SO8OO in southeastern Poland. 512 FT8 messages attributed to this token as transmitter, on 80m, 10m, across 5 UTC dates in the available aggregate history. Observed between 2026-08-12 and 2026-08-19.

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 512 FT8 messages attributed to PY5/PY2TIM as the transmitting token by decoded message structure across 5 UTC dates in the available aggregate history. The largest monitored-band total was 80 m (95%), followed by 10 m (5%). Most decodes (89%) fell within the six-hour window 22:00-04:00 UTC. Received S/N was mixed across SO8OO's weak, moderate and strong ranges; the estimated median was -16 dB.

SO8OO display ranges among successful decodes: weak (≤ -16 dB) 262, moderate (-15 to -9 dB) 225, strong (≥ -8 dB) 25.

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.
