>>>
>>> Unfortunately, I am unable to estimate "times" for a schedule.  I can

>>> grid for a minimum of 20mins.  If we are working people, we will stay
>>> longer, but if we are listening to static then we will continue on our
>>> way to the next grid.  APRS is enabled for stations to track us to
>>> compensate for the lack of a more detailed schedule with approximate
>>> times.
>>>
>>> Obviously QRM may cause these to change slightly, but the game plan is
>>> to primarily operate on 50.135 and 144.210.  While idle, the other
>>> radios will be monitoring on 222.1 and 432.1 for SSB, and 146.55, 223.5,
>>> and 446.00 for FM.
>>>
>>> Saturday
>>>
>>> For Saturday, we will start in NE EM63 and make our way through
>>> Chattanooga, Knoxville, and ending the day in Bristol, TN where we will
>>> rest.  The grids we will activate:
>>> EM63/EM64/EM74/EM75/EM76/EM85/EM86/EM96
>>>
>>> Sunday
>>>
>>> For Sunday, we will start at 6am in EM96 and head over to Wytheville, VA
>>> where we will turn and head south.  We will be making our way over to
>>> Greensboro, NC and then turning to go to Charlotte, NC.  From there
>>> south to Columbia, SC and then west toward Atlanta.  The goal is to end
>>> the contest just outside of Atlanta in EM73.  The grids we will
>>> activate:  EM96/FM06/FM05/EM95/EM94/EM93/EM83/EM73
>>>
>>> Total Grid effort planned:  15

>>> I do hope that you will look for me during the contest.  Again for more
