11 meter is very quiet?

Quiet today here in South Texas, an awl! If'n weren't fer ole' Kav out ther in six mile would be not a sole.
He'd texted me bouts 11 or 12 to see if I were on air. Nope! Them ther high winds yesterday lossened up antenna, was nailing a 6.8 swr......had to do some maintenance and some PM. Now have 1.0 swr. But taint nose buddy yak'n. Was some on that Mexican Soup Bowl, chl. 9.
 
Listened all afternoon. A few sporadic squeals from someone keying up, and brief far off rec. But jus dead quiet, except that RF hash growing louder.

Kav got his little 70 w kicker up and took that plastic wafer disc out of stock bearcat mic. Taking that out made a difference. After he got linear hooked up it was louder, some, but that amp he's got makes the new 980 sound, well.....pretty bad. Guess I'll have to get him a new one of those too.
