Of course! And as for the bands being dead, I did great with the QSO party, but even still 61 QSOs in 3 days is pretty good for abysmal band conditions. Chas.

right after they go to bed...try 40M. sorry that this didn't help at all. LL/K3ESE

were the 2X QRP QSOs the most fun...? LL/K3ESE

I would start with 20 meters at that time of the day. But you have to be patient. You’re not going to spin the dial and find a bunch of QSO. If nothing at all is heard, move to 30, then 40

I would think 40 would be your best, but you have to catch the sun spots. On MARS we found that 60 meters is the most reliable at lest for the short haul. Mark/AAV5QK/WQ8S

Hi Doc, This is going to sound like a very unhelpful answer but, the way the bands are at the moment, I would venture to say that any band that's open is the band to use. However that said I'll pass

I live in Northern NJ AND usually get time to qrp when waiting for my grandsons to get home from school. Usually from 1 PM EDST TO 3PM EDST. I do not find 40, 20, or 30 meters very active during this
