NO5W 2010 MSQP Route

I'm planning to be active this year in the Mississippi QSO Party covering about sixteen counties in southern Mississippi. Starting out in Hammond, LA we'll travel east on I-12/I-10 and hope to enter Hancock county at the starting bell. From there we'll continue east on I-10 to pick up the other two Gulf Coast counties. Turning north we'll wind our way back west and south of Hattiesburg, over to McComb and as far west as the Adams county line. After picking up Jefferson and Adams with short detours out of Franklin we head south to Wilkinson and then back east for another swing through Amite and Pike and then its back to Hammond for the evening. My driver has come out of semi-retirement for this one and if she says she's had enougn when we reach McComb we may have to forgo Adams, Jefferson, and Wilkinson but should be able to include Amite, Lincoln, and Franklin since they are very accessible from McComb.

As in the past it will be an all CW effort with most of our activity on 20m and 40m. We do plan to have 15m capability and plan to hit it harder than we have done in the past since things have been picking up lately on 15m. We will also have 80m capability but probably will not use it until the final 2-3 counties. Hope to see you in our 2010 Mississippi QSO Party log.
