Default Re: Users of 2 metre Amateur Band?

I live in a bit of a valley, with thousands of acres of woodland one side and chalk downs (the Ridgeway) the other. 2M is pretty much dead here!

Though I wonder to what extent we may have a "loads of listeners, no transmitters" syndrome going on? Perhaps time to knock up a little circuit using a Pi or an Arduino to digitally record a CQ call and automatically transmit it at random intervals to see if it wakes anyone up?
