another thing you can do is listen for the beacons just below 28.250.  I 
heard one in central Florida and Highlandville Missouri.  As soon as I heard 
the calls, I looked up them on qrz and that will give you an indication 
where the bands are open to.  There are beacons on 6 and 2 as well. 73- pat
