[ILQSO] KJ9C is coming over from Indiana

[Mel Crichton]

Jeff et al

Yes I plan to come over to Illinois but will make my plans after everybody else... since the south half of Illinois is about as far away from Indy as the north half of Illinois, I plan to fill in the bigger holes closest to Indianapolis... within reason of course. Don't want to drive to Wisconsin line and then to Kentucky. 

So even though I covered the south 1/3 last year, you are welcome (Jeff) to as much of it as you'd like.

I'd request though that ILQP mobiles NOT leave one lonely county hanging out there by itself... please get off the interstates and drive the back roads to the remote ones.... I'd rather not have to drive thru well-covered counties to pick up that lone straggler.

As for getting those 5 DXCC mults... in Ohio QP a few weeks ago I had 3 or 4 of  them quickly  on 20 meters, then as it got dark I must have worked at least 5 DXCC countries on 40 meters before their sunrise. It should be even easier in October. Look for LY2ZZ, OK1AOV, DL3GA, OK2ZU, DK2OY, CU2JT , DL5AWI, PA3ARM... usually found in state parties

I saw where most of my southern counties were picked up by a pair of mobiles. 
So I came up with a plan B. This is not set in stone, and depends somewhat if 
Mel , KJ9C, ? comes over from Indiana.
