Narrative:
Small transport taxied to runway 17 and reported doing so on unicom, using the airport name at both beginning and end of my taxi announcement. An small aircraft reported clearing runway 17 after I watched him touch down, a commuter reported 'about to clear runway 26' after taxiing. I saw an aircraft about 5 mi west of the airport and considered him no factor for my takeoff. The mentioned commuter cleared about midfield off runway 26 as I announced my takeoff and began rolling. As I rolled past runway 8, a runway whose threshold is immediately in front of that for 17, an aircraft called 'final for runway 8--good luck!' as I climbed out of 2000' the same aircraft (voice) reported short final for 08. Runway 08 traffic apparently thought that I should not have taken off at the time. I didn't receive any calls from him until I was in fact no factor for him, if I ever was a factor (as I checked for traffic and saw whom I believe was him at least 5 mi west, with no apparent definition of possible approach phase).

Title: POTENTIAL CONFLICT BETWEEN DEP AND ARR TRAFFIC AT UNCONTROLLED ARPT. UNABLE CALLBACK.
Narrative: SMT TAXIED TO RWY 17 AND REPORTED DOING SO ON UNICOM, USING THE ARPT NAME AT BOTH BEGINNING AND END OF MY TAXI ANNOUNCEMENT. AN SMA REPORTED CLEARING RWY 17 AFTER I WATCHED HIM TOUCH DOWN, A COMMUTER REPORTED 'ABOUT TO CLEAR RWY 26' AFTER TAXIING. I SAW AN ACFT ABOUT 5 MI W OF THE ARPT AND CONSIDERED HIM NO FACTOR FOR MY TKOF. THE MENTIONED COMMUTER CLRED ABOUT MIDFIELD OFF RWY 26 AS I ANNOUNCED MY TKOF AND BEGAN ROLLING. AS I ROLLED PAST RWY 8, A RWY WHOSE THRESHOLD IS IMMEDIATELY IN FRONT OF THAT FOR 17, AN ACFT CALLED 'FINAL FOR RWY 8--GOOD LUCK!' AS I CLIMBED OUT OF 2000' THE SAME ACFT (VOICE) REPORTED SHORT FINAL FOR 08. RWY 08 TFC APPARENTLY THOUGHT THAT I SHOULD NOT HAVE TAKEN OFF AT THE TIME. I DIDN'T RECEIVE ANY CALLS FROM HIM UNTIL I WAS IN FACT NO FACTOR FOR HIM, IF I EVER WAS A FACTOR (AS I CHECKED FOR TFC AND SAW WHOM I BELIEVE WAS HIM AT LEAST 5 MI W, WITH NO APPARENT DEFINITION OF POSSIBLE APCH PHASE).
