I agree.  20 has been bad lately (hopefully temporary) and 17 and up are 
much worse.  And here 40 has not been that wonderful either.  Going 
camping in the San Bernardino Mtns tomorrow and likely won't bother to 
set up my K1 and an antenna.  And too much moon for my telescope (except 
during tonight's eclipse).  But should be good hiking (one out of three 
hobbies will work!).
