Many of these were on my route from Atlanta to Hilton Head last year down I75 / 
I16. I'm planning to do a Rover Run again and looking at which counties/route 
to pursue. Yes, time is getting close. 

Anyone doing an SSB only 1x1 that would "loan" their 1x1 for my CW only rover 
operation?

tnx
Mike
