Similar story here. Also, not many Linux- using hams either.

There should be propagation at some time during that period on 20 metres,
around 0900 I would guess. I was intending to run the beacon for a few
days while I am at work (2200-0800Z), but could do an evening also
(until about 1200Z). The equipment is too noisy to leave running overnight.
