[ILHam] Field Day June 24-25

[Zack Widup]

The Twin City Amateur Radio Club in Champaign-Urbana will be having Field 
Day in Ambucs Park on University Avenue in Urbana. It is here:

Note the name has been changed from when this map was prepared. It is now 
Ambucs Park, not Woodland Park.

All public are welcome and it is easy to get to. We will be operational 
from 1 pm Saturday to 1 pm Sunday. Some of us will be sleeping overnight 
at the site. We will be using the callsign K9CU.

Also, for anyone not on Dick Iseley W9GIG's mailing list, Governor 
Blagojevic has proclaimed June as Amateur Radio Month in Illinois.  Dick 
has been sending out PDF files of the proclamation document.  It would be 
a great idea to display it on FD. I have the PDF file if you can't get it 
from Dick or somewhere else.

73, Zack W9SZ
