11 meter is very quiet?

Had the North East booming in here very loud this morning. Seemed to be a small area around Boston with many stations hitting me S9+ while sitting right in the driveway (otherwise known as the middle of QRM city).
Been quiet since about 12:00, I guess, which is probably good ‘cause I had many chores racked up...lol.

All I heard down here was Florida and it didn't last long. I tried to get back to 429 but then he was gone too.

I was only able to make two contacts. Then silence
WR-451 Florence AZ
954 Del Ray Beach FL
WR-451 Florence AZ
954 Del Ray Beach FL
About an hour and 15 minutes ago, I made contact with 953 and 350 in Panama City in the Florida panhandle. That's about 460 miles as the crow flies. I heard a few other stations out there, but the skip died out within minutes.
Just now, I made contact with 207 in Western Tennessee. We QSYed over to LSB 37, but the bottom soon fell out and the skip died.
We're expecting some rough weather this week-end. That oftentimes opens up some skip opportunities. Let's see what Mother Nature gives us.

I will be in the states in March 2020 will be bringing a radio with me a Stryker SR 955 for mobile use . 29 WJ 450
“So quiet I could hear Recons dog snoring ”
One for the ages.
Okay. It’s official:
1). I have (7) radios. Not (4).
2). I have (17) mobile antennas. Not (12)
And not one is hooked up
Runnng power in the CTD won’t take long. A BUSS termination fuse and a new lug. Splice in a radio three-way at the other end.
Slomp (that’s the sound it makes) the tri-mag with the blinding chrome Texan onto the roof.
Start swapping around the SSB radios.
Pretend I’m in the game.
Even after y’all cracked me up numerous times, can’t believe I just read this 55-page thread in one sitting.
