I'm pretty sure that once you work a station
from county Y you can't work him again.  That
should include if you've worked him as part
of a county line.  You only get the Q credit
once!

Send CW at 14!  It will make it easier for
people like me to work you. :)  I also will
be doing CW at break-neck speed of abt 15wpm,
although i'm not sure what % of time i'll be cw.

Update: I've added Putnam county to my mobile
route so it now includes: McHenry, Kane, Kendall,
Grundy, Livingston, Ford, Champaign, Piatt, DeWitt,
McLean, Woodford, Marshall, LaSalle, Putnam, Lee,
Ogle, Winnebago, Boone, and back to McHenry.

I have 20m and 40m antennas ready to go (good
old hamsticks) and i do have a 80m one that i
could try and use with a tuner for 75/80m...
but i wasn't planning on bringing a tuner along.
Maybe i had better just to be safe!  That post
also makes me realize i should bring my 2m 
antenna also to pick up some extras if i can!

While working some Q's in the PAQP yesterday, 
I did my best to "advertise" the ILQP as soemone
suggested.... "73 es C U next wknd in ILQP" ...
