I was about to order the 222 MHz transverter kit, but looked at how 
little activity there is on that band in this area, except during contests.
Even then, about 70% seems to be on FM, so I couldn't justify the 
expenditure.

I see it as a paradox.  This is the LA/OC area of southern California; 
the second-largest population center in the US.
