NA.  The window into W1 is only about an hour.

Yes. FAR too many expeditioners don't understand that 160, 80, and 40 peak on the DAYLIGHT side of the terminator, abandoning the band at the first sign of daylight, or failing to hit the band sooner before sunset. For 160, it's at least a half hour, an hour on 80, two hours on 40.
