[10m] What on the ten meter

[Joe]

GET ON AND CQ!

I have gone through several of these low sunspot times in my amateur 
history, and have found TEN open MORE than people think, WHY?

EVERYONE IS LISTENING!!!!!!!

of no one is making RF,   No one will hear anyone either. And think the 
band is dead!

You would not belive how many times I tuned all across the band and 
heard absolutely nothing.

Then i'd go and park on 28.400 and put out like a  1 minute long CQ  and 
I'd swear I was Rare DX!!  for dozens would be calling!!!!  EVERYONE IS 
LISTENING!!!

Make some RF and you'd be amazed how often it is open.
