There was always a group on around 7290 early weekends, but they generally
signed about 9 am, so I always just waited, since I knew they would get off.
The best conditions used to be about 10am to 12 noon, or whenever the
broadcast started up.
That always fit my weekends nicely, I usually had something else to do in
the afternoon.
There never seemed to be much ssb around after the early morning nets were
done.
I never operated 40 at night, there are often large holes in the band with
nothing on.
Not sure what skip would be like, really long or none at all, or what...

Stevan,
We in the Mid-Atlantic may or may not even hear you.
If we happen to fire up a KW AM rig, we sincerely apologize.
However, also remember that it is the AM window, and sometimes we
regularly light up early in the day.
We DO try to be friendly. Y'all "may" have to tune the notch filter a
tad.

Hey Fellow AM Enthusiasts,
I hate to be a wet blanket here but there is a group of regulars, some of
us which go hither and yon in our work, and we entertaining ourselves on
7195 LSB. For those of us on the road is breaks the monotony and keeps
us from falling asleep. The guys are going strong right now as I'm
writing this. It may not be of much concern for those up in the NW US
but I'm offering this information in the interest of being a good
neighbor fellow ham so please don't shoot me, I'm just the messenger.
Best Regards,

Try 7195 as an alternative.
It seems these frequencies will probably be regional.
