11 meter is very quiet?

I heard Australia this early evening before the sun started to set. He was talking to Maryland and New Jersey, but I could not get him. He QSYed to .410 and still couldn't make contact. I even flipped the big switch, guess its not big enough......

I gotta get that Sirio 4 element out of the box and in the air.
 
I believe I heard ForestRunner 98 very briefly this evening on 36LSB calling for an Australian station from a 917 Pasadena mobile. That was all I heard. I tried calling out a minute later but no luck.
You heard me??!!! No way!! Ya that’s my call “917 Pasadena Mobile” There were a few stations coming back but they were getting covered. I tried to listen really hard if a station came back but I didn’t want to wreck. Was driving. I did make a few contacts though.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
