It seems that the complexion of south Georgia is changing and change can be a good thing, particularly if it is not a government imposed change. Redistribution can also be a good thing when applied to the proper resources, other than wealth. I can remember when there wasn’t much in south Georgia except cotton choppers, tobacco pickers, pecan shellers and homemade peach ice cream on a hot summer afternoon. Now what’s left of the piney woods and wire grass is being excited by the growing concentration of efficiently tuned and properly directed radio frequencies.  It seems that technology is coming to south Georgia. We might even have to form a new committee on relocating the dreaded circle if the ham population continues to redistribute itself to south Georgia.  My congratulations to the new south Georgia ham. Times were when he might have been lonely for some local high-tech QSO’s but such is not the case anymore. He will be rubbing elbows with some great contesters down there and the SECC continues to grow in both size and quality. Nashville is in Berrien County. My memory is not so good anymore, help be out here Mike, might he be the only Ham in Berrien County? He will certainly be near some yet to be populated south Georgia counties.

 

Welcome to the SECC, Larry.
