David -- Thanks for trying.  7.104 MHz is center of waterfall.

Try again, maybe conditions will be better.  I think maybe I should move
down around 7.070 or 7.030, but VE7SUN in British Columbia uses 7.104 on
40M, so I thought I'd stay consistent.  I saw some SSB signals around 7.104.

Let me know how your tests go.
