Rick,

   Unfortunately well over 99% of activity on 1750 meters (and 2200 meters) is beaconing.
   There is some sporadic two-way activity but its the exception rather than the rule.
   Mostly this is due to the prevalence of slow speed cw (QRSS) which gives you a tremendous edge in signal
to noise but makes 2-way QSOs cumbersome to say the least.
