11 meters is pretty active. I'm listening to 27.385 LSB. Stations coming in from Ohio, Oklahoma, Kansas and Connecticut very strong.

Same here in the midwest. Wish I had SSB on my transceiver but nice hearing some skip again especially after I got my antenna back up.

There is some idiot causing trouble. Unfortunately instead of ignoring the person, some people are feeding into it. There's always a bad in the bunch. Its too bad. The majority of the people just wanna make QSO's and enjoy themselves. Thats one thing I don't miss. I worked a lot of DX on 27.385 and well above 27.405. Most of it around 27.555. I sometimes think about getting an RCI-2950 or HR2510 in the mobile, but the activity is so sporadic, I don't think it would be worth it. The other thing is that when the 10/11 meter bands are open, there is way more activity on 11 meters. In the mid to late 90's 10 meters was jumping.

11m has been active here for a few hours now, I noticed the Wallops Island foF2 reading was about 7 MHz so I decided to check it out.

I haven't had time to listen lately. Glad to hear that 10/11 meters are having openings.
