This might not be the correct forum for this.  I don’t have anything up for 40m at the moment.
Question is, how much SW broadcast junk is on 40m these days,  between  7200-7300 ?? 
Now that  7000-7200 is clear, did the broadcasters  move to 7200-7300 ?   
Is 7200-7300 even useable at night time on the west coast ?   If 7200-7300 is clogged full
of broadcast junk, it will make a big difference as to how I tweak up the 40m yagi.   I built a relay
box for the DE, so the swr is flat from 7000-7300, not even thinking about the broadcast freq
change yrs ago.   The best I can do this eve, is toss some wire out to a tree..and listen.
But I thought I would ask.   Been yrs since I have been on 40m..and used to use the entire band
end to end.

Tnx ... Jim  VE7RF
