Quite true.  I've put out a lot of CQ calls, and had no reply.  It's not my
best bird though, as I don't have great gear for the 10m downlink, and a
high noise floor.  Not a good combination. :-(

However, if you want a sked one day, just drop me an email or a message on
APRS (I'm sure you've seen me on your map a bit lately). :)  If my APRS
station is up, I'm home, and it will be that way until I can get a proper
TNC setup on the system.
