Hi Larry,

I call CQ daily at 474.5 on CW  starting around 1120z through sunrise and
2300z - 0100z.  There are plenty of WSPR stations as well between 475.600
and 475.800.  If you are ever in doubt about the presence of signals on the
band you can always check my remote receiver / grabber that updates to drop
box every 5 minutes:

have a dropbox login to view the captures.. just click  {x} if prompted to
log in...

73 and good luck!
