<DIV>Matt,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for noting my typographical error in your email reply to
Gordon, N4LR. The longitude (in decimal format) should have been
-80.63368 instead of -80.36638 which would have placed my QTH well out
into the Atlantic ocean. I don't live out there. I was at my
home in Warner Robins at the time and called my daughter on the telephone
for the coordinates. She read them correctly as I had them entered
into my logging program. QRZ.com, as you probably know, will compute
coordinates based on the zip code or allow you to manually enter
them. I manually entered mine and they appear to
be correct.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I am back in Jacksonville now and used Google Earth to check my
approximate coordinates, since I don't own a GPS device. As best as
I can determine, the coordinates are 30 degrees, 06 minutes, 28.97 seconds
North latitude and 81 degrees, 38 minutes, 01.03 seconds West
longitude. If you use Google or even some better software, mine is
the third driveway on the left side of the street going in a southerly
direction. Its an "L" shaped house and my operating position is in
the northeast corner of the house. My antennas are in the back
yard. Even with this specificity, I don't think its gonna put me
inside the circle.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The best answer for me is to operate ARRL contests from my home in
Warner Robins, where there is not any doubt, and other contests from
there and from here in Jacksonville.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>73,</DIV>
