20 meters appears to be wide open right now.
After this morning's Kansas Weather net on 75m I sent out a CQ on 14.050 and was happy to see the RBN showing my signal was being received into Europe, South Africa, and Australia. Had a brief QSO with a station near Youngstown, OH and the QSO was tail ended by a JA near Tokyo. Their signal was not very strong, but 20m was pretty quiet and I had good copy. I don't often hear the JAs this early in the morning - that was a nice surprise.
