2011 Mobile Routes

 

AD8J/m

Route:   1800  Carter  > 1915  Johnson  > 2030  Sullivan  >  2230  Washington >  0015  Carter (75/80M)  >  0100  Unicoi

Comments:   I will probably spend at least an hour in each county and will operate both phone and CW.  Allow 15 min. travel time between counties.  I’ll probably skip the last hour so I can get back to Asheville at a reasonable hour.

K4LTA  (plans on hold)

Route:  Unicoi > Carter > Washington > Sullivan > Greene > Hawkins > Hamblen > Cocke > Jefferson > Sevier > Blount > Knox > Loudon > Monroe > McMinn > Meigs > Rhea > Roane > Anderson > Morgan

Comments:   We try to spend 20 to 30 minutes in each county alternating between, 20/40 before dark at 0000z and then 40/80 the last 3 hours of the contest.  There are some counties that we hit twice, such Greene enroute to Hawkins, Hamblen enroute to Cocke, and Anderson enroute to Morgan, to and from, that is.  We don’t travel very long through Monroe, McMinn, and Meigs and usually stay on one band going through them and after spending 30 minutes in Rhea, we reverse our route going back through Meigs, McMinn and Monroe in the reverse order on a different band. I hope I can work many of you for TN County Mults and I hope to give some mults to you as well.
