Please delete the last email, I had the wrong dates listed with the counties>
Georgia-Alabama
On November 25th thru 29th, I will be running the following counties in Georgia, Alabama and Florida. I plan to run on 20 and 40 meters SSB No CW on the move most of the time and I plan to run PSK31 on the county lines. I will be running all 3 bands 7.072, 10.139 and 14.072 and they may be in a different order depending on where my new screwdriver antenna is parked when I start. Look for me slightly up in freq if those are too busy. I will be spotting myself on PSK31. I will run 75 meters (3.901) only if there is a request and you can make any requests by cell. I will try to put out the first line on PSK31 around 1300-1330 zulu each day. Feel free to contact me in any of the following modes:
Cell Number: 352-339-6457 (Verizon)
Onstar: 352-275-3038

I am now using a Motorola Droid X which is a awsome computer phone and is excellent for spotting on W6RK. On my last trip I think I was connected to the internet about 95% of the trip on Verizon. You can call me on that phone and when that call is over it goes straight back to the internet and W6RK. It is also a GPS device with no charges for any updates. What I like about it is the large touch screen. You just have to make sure that if you are not plugged in to a power supply to turn off the unnecessary running programs with a button on top, just like the Iphone.Of course to use it for spotting you really have to plug it in to a cigarette lighter or the battery will drain too fast.
