[ILQSO] "one-callsign" mobile rule

Not a problem, Jim.  It was in fine print :)

Man, there are a LOT of posted plans this year!  This is going to be one
great Sunday afternoon !!  We still have four or five mobiles that are
pretty likely to be active but have not posted routes.  

Something to consider, in terms of strategy, is to be "band-agile". The
PAQP bunch discovered last weekend that 1) 15 meters was open but nobody
was there and 2) 40 meters went so long that PA stations had trouble
working each other, even in midday.  Keeping that in mind, don't forget
to check 15 once in awhile, consider trying 80/75 earlier than usual,
especially if 40 is long, and if you have Internet access, post mobiles
to http://ch.w6rk.com/ so they can be found quickly by as many as
possible.  With several of the mobiles trying to cover a LOT of
counties, it will be easy to miss counties if people aren't really
paying attention.

Will this be the year that someone works 100 or more IL counties in 8
hours?????

My apologies. I remember in the past you were allowed to do that...but I

have since read the "new" rules and realized my mistake. Sorry to have 
ruffled any feathers.
