Hey Paul.  Nice!  Yeah I am up "early" today.  Had a short QSO with a mobile near Las Vegas then I heard Guy, W1FRM and carried on a bit with him.

I thought you were nearer 29.040 when I heard you talking to N6LSX/M (?) in Las Vegas. When you finished with him and put out a CQ I replied, but you didn't hear me!

Dave.

Yeah I was on .040 with the Las Vegas station.  I had ran out to check my mail immediately after Dave.

If you are still there, name an open frequency and we can try! :)

I'm parked around 29.060 now because too much activity lower.

I'm afraid it's too late now as the band has gone out completely at this end.

Hopefully the it'll be in good shape again over the winter and we'll get another chance.

Dave.

I spoke too soon .... there's someone on 29.060 talking about NC300s. I can also hear a station in Virginia calling CQ on 29.050, but he's very weak. There's also a qso on 29.000 but the stations on there are too weak to get the call signs.

Dave.

That was me or the fella I was talking too on 29.060.  I made a few back to back QSO's mostly with New England but also the west coast.  I am going to have to take a break and listen up for JA's closer to sunset.  I was told there was some on 10 AM yesterday.

Just spoke with Ian - G0UWK on 29050 at 1914Z. The band is not dead to EU just yet.

Just prior I had a nice chat with Al - K7HOQ, located on the coast of Washington state.

Did not hear you on 060 John. Maybe I was  tuning too fast.
