[ILQSO] Re: NE0P Score

[jfunk at adams.net]

We had NO idea on Sunday how lucky we were that the contest was Sunday, not 
Monday!!!! 

I, too, missed DuPage (and a lot of others). The price we pay for having 
K9PG go to IROQ, I guess.  (That's IROQ....not IRAQ....). 

Adams at least was on the air:  K2PEY, N9UPG, KB9HGI, N9DT/P, NA9DM that I 
know of.  But N9GXW/P, NM9C/P, K0CA/P, W9OAB and KR9L were *not* on, and a 
lot of other Adams Cty residents put out other counties:  AB9DU, N9JF, 
N9MTX, W9FGH (total of 18 counties, I think). 

LaSalle was on.  A mobile or two and a portable, I think. 

Ye cats, John....you worked 80 counties!!!!  Whaddaya want, man? ;) 

Nice job.  First "edible qualifier" to submit a log this year. 

73, Jim N9JF
