11 meter is very quiet?

[Rwb]

I have been on the radio all morning.
DX from the western US all over.
I am sitting here now and there are at least a dozen stations still working DX in the radio.
Both 10 and 11 meters.

Good conditions.

Back in the truck. Changed back to door mount vertical from dipole experiment, but this time with a 5’ Skipshooter on a QD to replace the stolen Wilson 2000.

Bonded the door hinges (4) having made 3/4” copper-braid jumpers on lugs.

Distinctly quieter. How much still not determined.

Skip from everywhere. On 38-LSB or 19-AM, was backing off gain all day as it came around again.

Ears okay. Voice, nyah.

I love talkin' to all y'all. I was up on 38 LSB this morning and nothing much was happening. Just a little local chit chat. Then I went back down to channel 20 Am and made some good contacts up north and along the east coast. Y'all were sounding good in my radio 73's Choo Choo....
