I once checked into a 75M boatanchor roundtable net with my 746Pro and stock hand mic.  Before it got back to me everyone was trying to guess what I had - a DX-100?  Johnson Ranger?  It was like a fart in church to announce I was running a rice box on their vintage net and no one had picked up on it.

Once I happened upon a couple guys ragchewing on 50.4 AM in California.  They were as surprised as I was to make contact with another soul, they figured they were the only ones on the planet running 6M AM.

I think you might find a bit of activity on 10M AM due to the availability of CB's that work there but odds are it will be bootleggers.
