I moved here in 1999, right after the Navy left in 1997. I’ve had to move out of my original place so they could demolish it and look in the ground underneath.  There’s been a few like this.

I check into the 40 meter noontime net just about every day from my house.  There’s a lot of noise here in the housing area, but I can take a portable rig out to an open space and do better.

40, 20, and 7 are pretty good for me.  I use a vertical and a Motorola Micom 2.  I can also do ALE.

I remember hearing that K6NCG used to do most of their phone patches on 14.292, so I often reach for that frequency first when I need one.
