Narrative:
I had made radio calls for taxi and to take runway 09 while monitoring the CTAF frequency. When I began my ground roll I noticed another aircraft take the opposite end of the runway and begin to accelerate toward me. I immediately aborted my takeoff roll and notified over the airways that I was doing so and the other aircraft continued to depart the opposing runway 27 and took off over me. They never made a single radio call until I addressed them directly and announced that I was aborting my takeoff. Then they stated they couldn't hear myself or the other aircraft that were in the traffic pattern. They stated that the transmissions were coming through broken. I believe to avoid these kinds of situations everyone should make radio transmissions before entering a runway and actively monitor the com frequency while maneuvering on or around any airport.
