Yes, but generally not workable for (at least) two reasons. First, 
they're listening to EU. Second, we hear them here (CA) for the same 
reason you do -- lower noise levels before the band opens more with 
darkenss. During those hours I regularly hear big stations from the east 
coast but cannot work them, even with 1.5kW and decent antennas.
