I've made many MS WSJT contacts however about 25% of mine were not 
pre-arranged but random.  Try tuning to 144.140 and call CQ U4 
(example:  CQ KI4FIA U4), put your rig in SPLIT mode and listen to 144.144 
for someone to respond.  When you get a response go out of SPLIT mode and 
continue the QSO on 144.144 (or what ever freq you were listening 
to).  This method works great for me using the IC-910H, excellent SPLIT 
mode operation.

I've made more 2mtr DX qso's this way then sitting around waiting for Es or 
Tropo on 144.200.
