Yes after sunset would make a huge difference, for me my station count goes from 15 to 100+ after dark.-- Paul

Hi Paul, It was an easy test. ;) Zero. I heard nothing at 6:30 PM EST on the frequencies 1400 KHZ to 1500 KHZ. Or 1300 KHZ to 1400 KHZ. Or 1500 KHZ to 1600 KHZ. On three radios. : ( I had
