   Dear Larse (no call sign):   
      
       I do not know where in Michigan (or the 8th call area) you are located.   
   After all, Michigan is a very large state.   
      
       I am in the central part of the lower peninsula.  Only on 20 meters have   
   they had a strong signal.  As others have said, CW provides the best chance   
   of a contact.  I have found that their signal gets good about 7:45 A.M. EDST   
   (1145Z), peaks about 8:30 A.M. EDST, and becomes weak by something like 9:30   
   A.M. EDST.   
      
       This morning (May 4, 2007), on 20 SSB, the operator spent a lot of time   
   on 3s, 2s, 1s, and then 0s.  He called for 9s - almost immediately decided   
   that signals were weak, and left to work EU.  All the while, a useful signal   
   was heard on 20 CW.   
      
       I suggest starting to listen tomorrow at about 7 A.M. EDST.  My   
   expectation is that the farther north you are, the shorter will be the   
   opening.   
      
       73,   Mac   N8TT  (my actual present call sign)
