Wednesday would work for me.  That said, a few thoughts:

1: "right across America" includes US east coast and northern tier stations and those of us another hop or two further from you in the far southwestern part of the country.

2:  Unless I've confused you with another Roger, I remember a night a week or so ago when you were quite good copy here in Arizona.  It was anguish to listen to you work nothing but eastern US stations.   Selective calling and more rapid QSOs would have better utilized the opening and put more stations in your log, and you in mine.

Some nights there are LOTS of NA stations on the band . . . other times it's
very quiet, and endless CQ calls produce no replies! (despite RBN showing
there is good propagation)

Can I suggest we come up with a weekly DX Activity Night on CW?

How about a Wednesday?
