HP or LP? On HP, go for 10m -- it's the conventional wisdom of starting
on the highest open band. That's where a lot of activity will be.
For Low-Power, in the first 30 minutes, you're going to have a hard time
making it through the wall of high-power stations on 10m, if 10m is open.
However, it's a great time to go to 20m and work a lot of stations, since
it isn't too crowded for a LP station to be effective.
Worked for me in the last couple of Phone SS. (Unfortunately, I wasn't
able to give them a full-time effort)

Good plan. Whereever you can find rate is good.
