I was around and tuned up the amplifier for 40 meters.  But there were QSOs
that I could hear every 2.5 KHz in that part of the band and I didn't feel
like butting in or driving someone off a frequency.  Also, on 7191 I had
what sounded like a plasma TV set's QRM, so I wouldn't have heard as well as
I would like.  

I will be on 14258 today at 2100Z.  Skip seems a little longer than it has
been this fall, but I'm sure many of us will hear each other.
