Mobiles that have announced plans include:

1. KT4ZB - southeastern GA (mobile on Saturday only)
2. AF4QB (with NY4N) - NW, west, and northcentral GA
3. WA4TII - eastcentral GA
4. KN4Y - southwestern and far south GA
5. W3DYA - westcentral and south GA - above KN4Y route
6. K4PK (with WB5RYB) - central GA
7. NJ4U (K4TW & K4EA) - NE, central, & SE GA
8. K5OT - NE, far north, and NW counties.


My apologies to Don K4PK for busting his call on my previous note.


Route changes:

K4PK will try to activate JONES and BALDWIN counties on Saturday, and HEARD
and TROUP on Sunday.

W3DYA may be able to cover EVANS and MONTGOMERY on his busy trip across the
south.

And AF4QB has adjusted their route slightly, taking off a few counties at
the end of the day on Saturday but adding TROUP and HEARD on Sunday.

The only counties that still show little if any mobile coverage are just a
few near Augusta and along the SC border:  Wilkes, Lincoln, Columbia,
Richmond, Burke, Jenkins, and Screven. Perhaps some home stations or
last-minute mobiles will fill in some of them.

Thanks to these mobiles and to the many home stations that have shown a lot
of early interest in the contest. It should be an active weekend!

73,
