I will start the contest just north of Valdosta, GA and rove north on I75. 
Stops will include EM80HX, EM81FL, EM82CX, EM83DS, and finishing in EM73XU.

To see where I currently am search for WB8LYJ/R on aprs.fi <http://aprs.fi/>

I will be listening on some of the chats but will not be posting since self 
spotting is not allowed by the contest rules.

2m: 9 element M2 as high as I can get it. If it’s not windy it will be at 30’

I’ll mostly be on ft8 on 144.174, at 1600 +/- QRM.
I’ll switch over to 144.200 to call and check for SSB signals occasionally.

I’ll be monitoring 146.49 or 146.55 for local contacts.

6m: 3 elements at 25’ if I can get the mast up all the way.

Same as 2m, mostly ft8 on 50.313, occasionally checking 50.125 for SSB. If the 
band is open and there is FT4 activity I will be on 

I will try some msk144 MS on both 2m and 6m.
