Bill,
I've worked JA's in April and August. Europe and the Mideast can be
worked all summer long, as well as VK/ZL and much of the southern
hemisphere -- where it's their winter. So the "season" can be what you
make of it.
Keep working on the Inverted L -- it should be a better antenna for DX
most of the time.
