Please join us for the 63rd annual Georgia QSO Party this weekend.

The link to the Georgia QSO Party webpage ishttps://gaqsoparty.com. It 
starts Saturday afternoon at 1800z (2 PM EDT) and goes until 0400z 
(Midnight EDT). On Sunday it resumes at 14:00z (10 AM EDT) and ends at 
0000z (8 PM EDT)

The three main rover teams in the GQP this weekend will be covering 147 
of the 159 Georgia counties. Those teams are:
*W4AN/m * KU8E and K4BAI operating. We will go to SSB if CW slows down. 
We will also go to 40 meters during the day.

On Sunday we might alter our route to make it to the far northwest GA 
counties if we're running ahead of schedule.
*AD4EB/m*- Jim and Melody (KI4HVY) will be covering 66 Georgia counties 
by themselves. They will be on APRS if you want to track what county 
they are in.

*N4N/m (*K5JR and team) will be a Multi-2 mobile. They will probably 
always be on two different bands all the time. They will be on both CW/SSB.
I'm hoping that I will get some last minute rover/portable stations to 
get on the air. Even if I don't I'm sure these three rover stations will 
keep everyone out of state happy.
