Well the 10 meter radio gets turned on at least one time per a night.
The other night Lee and KC said that they could hear at least 4 people talking at the same time - after 9 PM EST.

It was as if someone had turned a light on.
I don't remember for sure - but I think I didn't say anything HI HI - because the propagation was not in my direction. I could hear - but no one could hear me.

Mental note - got to get a couple of hundred feet of LMR 400 and get the Moon Raker 4 up sometime soon.

Sunday night - I believe the band conditions opened up for about a hour and I was able to rag chew once again with Lee and Kc Down in Tampa Bay...
A couple of people on the 28.400 usb that night that I talked to - but no real band opening.

Update = Tuesday 16 - I can hear the Chicken band opening up, which usually means that the 10 meters is not far behind.
Thundershowers Sunday night and Monday night kept the bands pretty quiet at my house with all the lightning crashes.

When that happens the 10 meters gets shut off and the 2 meters gets turned back on.

I think Sporadic E has a lot more to do with the 2 meters - ( 144 - 148 VHF) then it does for the 10 meters HF bands.

It's been my experience when the 2 meters is booming - the 10 meters is weak or non existent, when the 10 meters is booming the 2 meters is dull and uneventful.
That is typical Western Pennsylvania for you.
