Well ... probably not, at least on 20. I'm in Auburn 35mi NE of
Sacramento and the only time I can hear Kevin on 20 is during the Es
season [August-ish] and then it's hit and miss. I have a tribander. In
the winter, 40 is already going long at net time. When Tom was still
alive, he'd call the net from the middle of the country after Kevin got
as many as he could, which got all of us west coasters.
A low dipole on 40 [NVIS] might work better between N Cal and N OR.

Greetings,
I too can not hear the nets at my QTH 50 miles south of San Francisco. Only
once did I hear a station down in Southern California who was able to relay
for me, but other than that, nada. I know it's not my antenna (okay maybe
it is a little) because I work and can hear other states and dx regularly.
One day ill get a nice beam and maybe that will help.
