Tell me please. What remedies are there for such issues in 10 meter?
Just
wondering. Or is the inadvertent skip ok with the hams (possibly a
welcome
side affect)?

PL tones, and coordination, carefully limiting the number of repeaters in
use, and their power output.

Yeah, the hams are very good at coordination/cooperation. Something
seriously lacking in 11 meters (but that's stating the obvious I guess).

They may even control their power according to
band conditions, but I'm not sure on that.

Yeah, I thought about limiting output power but it seems to me that if I can
talk skip with 500 mw on 11 meters, then scaling back couldn't be much help.
Skip will roll when skip wants to roll. Maybe a high angle of radioation
would allow good local and limit the ability to dx. (anyone with good
antenna theory have ideas on that?)

The only repeaters I've worked on, were 2M and higher, so I don't have
direct experience there.

You might look up one of the 10M repeater callsigns, and email the licence
holder, and ask him.

Thanks Dave. I'll do that.
