814kms on 500kHz with 500uW, a 10m halo and 5m of coax

This evening my 500kHz QRP WSPR signal managed to reach DL3NDR despite the antenna system being "downgraded" yesterday: the spiral top hat has gone and in its place is the 28MHz halo with 5m coax feeder. ERP is I believe some 6dB lower at around 500uW, yet it still gets this far.
