[Fists] 30m, anyone??

[Dan Romanchik]

I just discovered 30m, and find it to be a very interesting band. The big
problem, though, is that there doesn't seem to be enough activity.
Generally, you have to call CQ for quite a while before you raise anyone,
even when the band's open. Tonight, for example, I called CQ for more then
ten minutes before I finally got a response, but when I did, I got a 579
signal report.

Since phone isn't allowed on 30, it would seem to be a natural for FISTS
members. In spite of that, though, I've only made one FISTS contact in the
past week, and only once have I heard anyone call CQ on 10118. What's up,
guys?

73!
