Narrative:
I was flying a practice GPS approach to runway 35. Shortly after my CTAF announcement that I was on a 5 mile final for runway 35; another aircraft announced taxi to runway 35 for departure. I maintained radio contact with the other aircraft and we exchanged information several times as to location and status. With less than 3 miles from runway 35; the other aircraft reported it had sufficient time to take off before my arrival on runway 35. I was intently focused on being sure that there would be no risk of collision and was preparing to go-around when the other aircraft reported it was airborne off runway 35 and making a left turn to the west; so I elected to continue on for landing. Due to the distraction of dealing with the other aircraft; I failed to confirm that my landing gear was fully extended. In fact it was only partially extended; and this resulted in the propeller hitting the runway. After landing I noted that the landing gear circuit breaker had popped; which prevented a full extension of the landing gear. There were no injuries.

Title: A C-210 pilot landed with partially extended gear after he failed to notice the circuit breaker popped. He was distracted by communicating on CTAF with traffic departing from his destination runway immediately in front of him.
