I need some help with this one. I don't see any existing routes for KU8E
nor W4AN. What should I be looking for? I will get it added to the FQP
Activations workbook.

John is dropping off his car at my house tonight for me to setup the antennas and radio. W8UE is arriving in Columbus,GA on Thursday night. Hopefully I will be able to work Florida from my QTH. 40 meters goes long early now but I will be there during the day looking for you guys.
