[McGehee]

Today's edition of "Georgia Section on My Mind" by ARRL's Georgia SM 
Susan Swiderski, AF4FO, includes this blurb submitted By Ellis Camp, 
W8PY, about the BGMRC's plans:

    BILL GREMILLION MEMORIAL ARC--- of Newnan  will hold field day this
    year at the Coweta County Fair Grounds off Pine Road which runs between
    Corinth Road and US 27/29 South of Newnan.  Setup will start on Friday
    afternoon and there is plenty of air-conditioned sleeping space
    available for those of us staying the duration.  We invite any HAM or
    prospective HAM or those curious as to what HAMs do to attend any or
    hopefully all of the event.  We will be serving free Hamburgers and
    hotdogs from 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM on Saturday. Come on out and bring the
    family.  We will also offer assistance in adding power pole connectors
    to any mobile, HT or Base station radio.  Connectors, 30 and 45 amp
    will be available for purchase.  We will be checking and adjusting
    mobile rigs for the best achievable SWR and offer assistance to anyone
    who desires help in installing a mobile rig.  We will have a radio
    dedicated to fast CW and one dedicated to 5 WPM max.  We will have some
    Boy Scouts who are interested in Ham Radio in attendance.  Some will be
    ready for their General exam and some for Tech by the end of Summer. 
    We will have a GOTA station and will assist future HAMs to talk on HF. 
    Please come and join us. Talk-in on 145.130 tone 156.7 (de ELLIS CAMP,
    W8PY)

According to ULS, Ellis' new call was awarded just two days ago, and not 
even the ARRL database has it yet this morning. Congrats, Ellis!
