11 meter is very quiet?

Just looking at the current Solar Conditions and here's the following as of 530:

Sunspot: 26
Solar Flux:114
Noise floor: S1-S2
Also shows daytime HF 12-10 meter: POOR

Not a good start for DX,now of course it can change throughout the day today, hopefully it will pick up,I'll be checking the Ranger out later,as I have to take Dad for eye Surgery (Cataracts), have a great Morning and hope all of my Radio Friends have a great day ahead and God Bless you all!!

You heard me??!!! No way!! Ya that’s my call “917 Pasadena Mobile” There were a few stations coming back but they were getting covered. I tried to listen really hard if a station came back but I didn’t want to wreck. Was driving. I did make a few contacts though.


I only heard you one time, I was hoping to make contact with you. California has been strong into Texas lately. I'll keep listening for you. 553 usually somewhere in Texas.

CB died here, years ago - except for the skip, and the occasional truckers nearby. But, the truckers are dwindling down on the CB - at least here.

I used to have a shop, shut it down due to lack of business. It "died"!!!! Consumer stuff is junk - landfill filler, not worth repairing, so I just closed shop.
 
Home today with it squelched on 23 a.m..
Radio kid from Central Cali broke the squelch so I went and had a short conversation with him. Not much else I hear except Spanish stations.
I did give a yell on 16 LSB

I'm hearing more European stations lately. This morning I heard some UK stations and Austria was coming in strong for a mobile station. Wish I had more time to play radio.

On edit:
I'm also hearing so Cali booming in. Think I've heard ridge runner a few times.
