Ten metres may not seem like much of dynamo at the moment, but just wait until sunspot cycle 24 really gets going in a year or so. The band is wide and has plenty of room for CW, data, beacons, SSB, satellite and even FM and repeater operation. Many books will also tell you that 10m is subject to tropospheric enhancements. But, if you are expecting the kind of long-range openings you get on 2m, I think you may be disappointed. I have never heard a really long-range tropo opening on 10m and, while I wouldn't say they don't exist, they are not the best mode for good 10m propagation.
