Ivo, unfortunately I made the same mistake. I stayed stupidly on 80 meters
for 10  minutes CQing without any answer after making just 2 QSOs... Same
with other bands several times...
10 min. rule applies only to M/S category (January 2000 CQ, page 40). Great
opprtunity for SO2R (and 2O2R :-) ) guys.
We need to read rules more carefully sometimes. It could be handy...
