Hi Y'all! (said with a strange Australian accent!)

Am doing so NEC work for my QTH and need to get an idea of the ground
conditions here.

I started with the "Rich soil" of DallasLincoln but was advised that it
was more clay and likely to be typical of that in central VA.

Any information helpful.
