This is the first week I heard anything on 7.277 and it was very very
faint. Couldn't make out anything other than someone was talking. Since
the tower came down there's no antenna near my other HF rig so I couldn't
double check that.

I've thought about doing that, too (e.g., using my other rig), but didn't
know if that would be okay or not, so I haven't. I've listened almost
every Sunday and I hear nothing...zilch...nada. I've got 3 acres of ground
but the XYL is adamant about not raising a "visible" antenna. My EFHW
works okay with 100W and 41 stages in the RF/AF stages, but I am not doing
well here with the B40. I'll keep trying...

I had a QSO with Don ND6T in California about half
an hour early... my first one with someone using a
BITX40! I'm still waiting for my BITX40, so I was
running 100W. Don was fairly weak... about 43.
I later heard K7RTV, KG7UMW and N6QW although I
thought I heard him saying he was not QRP. I heard
ND6T again in a QSO during which he peaked up to 59.
There were quite a few weaker stations whose call
signs I couldn't copy.
