John,
Its normal for ten to sound quiet under the band conditions we have now. There are less atmospheric noise effects at the higher frequency bands.

I would keep trying the band at different times of the daylight. That is when 10 is most active. You also might put up a simple 10m vertical dipole hanging from a tree for more DX capable reception. The low end can be 4 feet from the ground. Or more if you can.
