Hi
15 meters still has some decent propagation and activity...but it is 
mostly during the day.  Activity is better on the weekends.  17 meters 
does not have a lot of CW activity, but it stays open longer and is more 
likely to be useable than 15 at any given time.  I have 15 in my K1 and  
can change it to 17 at any time, but I decided it was not worth the effort.
How's that for a non-answer?
