Well, as one of my suffix phonetics is "Jacksonville high frequency," I
would be interested in having an all Jacksonville net.  BTW, I know someone
who lives in Greenville NC, but he's not a ham.  Well, he is, he's just not
an amateur radio operator.  Hi Hi!  Anyway, Albert, do you happen to know a
guy named Mike Blanck?  Actually I do have a funny story about him regarding
ham radio.  The first time he heard someone mention a ham fest, he thought
they were referring to a pig-pickin', which for those of you who don't know,
that's a down-home way of sayin/ a good-ol fashioned barbecue.  Take care
everybody.

Round Table

All of this does bring up a question:

I wonder what the most popular town name in the U.S.  really is?

I'll leave that to the researchers among us to determine.  (grin)
