>From memory...

On Saturday we operated from:

Habersham
Hall
Banks
Jackson
Madison
Franklin
Stephens

Jeff dropped me back off and worked some more from Fulton, Cobb, and 
I think Gwinnett.

Sunday we picked up:

Rabun
Towns
Union
Fannin
Gilmer
Murray
Gordon
Bartow
Cherokee
Pickens

We would have added Dawson, Lumpkin and White, but the antenna mount 
finally gave up about 4:00 or so.  We had had intermittent RFI 
problems that bothered the laptop (we went to paper) and the CMOS 
Super II keyer (we went to internal IC706 keyer).  Turns out there 
was a loose connection in the antenna mount.

It didn't upset us, as we weren't doing this thing very seriously.  
But, it was a lot of fun, and I recommend /M operating to 
everyone...may have to think about doing this up right next time!

All CW BTW...we talked about doing phone to boost the rate, but 
usually about the time we ran out of guys on CW, we were in a new 
county.  And, for the most part Jeff operated and I drove...although 
I did put out a couple of the counties on Sunday.

I'm sure Jeff will post a score summary shortly...looking forward to 
seeing what the other mobiles did.
