I recently heard two presentations from the FT5ZM team. They were paying 
very careful attention to grey line propagation to work the eastern half 
of NA at our sunset, and the western half at our sunrise. From my QTH 
near San Francisco, I could hear the east coast guys working them in 
that time frame. K9CT showed a time lapse video of 160M QSOs to North 
America that moved east to west during those periods.
