Hello Chris,

Meteor scatter is great for distances between about 600 miles and 1300 
miles as your signal scatters off ionized trails at about the same 
height as Es clouds, maybe 65 miles above the earth.   Best bet seems to 
get on the ping jockey meteor scatter website to look for activity.  You 
need a good SW to west horizon.
