I was watching 12 meters on Sat/Sun and the band appeared to be dead.  After a few minutes a ZL station showed up.  They were pretty faint but was able to work them on FT8 for a new band country.  Currently using an EFHW wire antenna pointed east.  Was really pleased with the catch on 12.  Not rare by any means but it was more the distance from West TN with a low SF and high A index.
