Human Factors
Takeoff morning flight. VFR day winds light closest Runway 6 visibility fair. Taxi to Runway 6 called approach to get a squawk code. Then switch to announced to depart Runway 6. Both aircraft announced at same time blocking initial communications did not hear other aircraft until announcing takeoff roll. At that time I have taxi into position to depart. The other aircraft continued departing opposite runway; at that time I heard the takeoff announcing. I aborted the takeoff immediately got off the runway first taxiway and clear off the runway; the other aircraft continue the takeoff.Lesson uncontrolled field bright sun limited visibility to see the other end of the runway. Probably best way to avoid is to do multiple announcements and monitor closely UNICOM before getting clearance and depart to avoid any traffic conflicts. Only maneuver was immediate aborting the initial takeoff roll and clear the runway for the other aircraft. Being vigilant at all phases of flight the best policy.
Corporate jet Captain reported rejecting takeoff and exiting runway to avoid opposite direction traffic.
