It was really strong this morning (Monday) in western NC at 1534 Z; the strongest I've ever heard it (53 degree pass). I listened to two passes yesterday - 43 deg and 47 deg, 90 minutes apart - which were not nearly as strong; the latter pass was about an hour after local sunset, so the sat may have been in partial eclipse by then. (Station set-up in all 3 passes is the FT 8900R with a Comet Quad-Band mobile vertical, but the car was stationary during all those passes.)
