10M can be iffy.  I always like 15 and 18 better, although many years ago I
worked NZ with 60 watts AM on 10.

Yeah, if I hadn't already decided, that earthquake would've put paid to 
any ideas I had of living in California. ;-)

I haven't even fired up my 2m radio in a couple of years.  I only have a 
Tech license at the moment, so 6m is the most reach I can get, and it 
won't reliably get where I want to go.  Now that they've loosened the 
requirements (dropped Morse) I ought to go upgrade to General.  With 10m 
I could reliably talk to my long distance buddies that 6m won't reliably 
reach.
