I would be willing to make a skd. for 1885 say 9 Pm.
Lightning spikes are S9 + when they are in the area, so 100 w will not do, 300 to 500 would be more like it for 250 miles or so local.

For AM, not much.  Marv, KC9VF can be found on 1.915 but most in the 5 state region do SSB.  I hve been on the past 5 years and could not get many to get on consistantly.
