Hi Matt,
I used a couple online distance calculators. One of them will do the
calculation based on
zip codes . I used 30441 - Colemans Lake, Georgia.
The distance from here to :
K4EA - 163.28
K4BAI - 163.72
K2SX - 181.24
KF4GTA - 153.91
KU8E - 162.82
When you try Birdsville, Ga 30442 :
K4EA - 179.02
K4BAI - 177.68
K2SX - 168.40
KF4GTA - 155.40
KU8E - 177.47
The circle needs to be adjust north of Birdsville, GA ( the 30441 and 30442 zip
codes)
Maybe somewhere along GA 56 between Waynesboro and Colemans Lake,GA
to fit everyone in the circle. We are close.
