Hello, I am making contacts every day with either my K2 or K1 at 5 watts. Worked 9A1JSB two days ago.

I suggest you learn about and check the hourly propagation forecasts on WWV. Learn about the A and K index numbers, too. They'll give you a pretty good idea of what to expect. HF band conditions are directly related to sunspot and solar flare activity, both of which fluctuate at an eleven year rate. Compromise antennas don't help, either.
