So, I love talking on hf on 10 but it seems like nobody is ever on. Does anyone else notice that. Why are all the higher licensees staying so low in the bands?

Good question. I also hardly even hear anyone on 10/15

It sucks because it could be a lot of fun it just seems like some operators are "too good" for the upper hf bands.

Maybe they just don't have antennas for 17+?

We could try to establish a 10m net for our community here on Lemmy? You could lead if you want!

Worth a shot. I'll post about it.

10m has been a bit quite lately. FT8 has been pretty active, but you'll only hear voice if the band has at least an average to great opening.
