They were solid here on 40 last night...... but the band/path is  
totally out this evening - I can't hear a thing
on 40. They were also good on 10 MHz..( that's when the beacon went  
off - ! )...and I chased them for awhile on that band - but by 8  
oclock (0100Z) the QSB was horrible and they just dropped out.
I'm going to try in the morning before going to work - some very good  
ops on the CW bands.
