No problem. As long as we can figure out what they meant, they're safe

Subject: [ILQSO] Foul up on county abbreviation


I didn't have my Internet access early in ILQP 2007, and mistookenly 
sent WINN instead of WBGO for Winnebago county for the first 100 or so 
contacts.  I hope folks will realize that WINN is NOT the preferred 
abbreviation for WBGO, and/or the contest scoring team won't scratch all

the contacts who claim WINN instead of WBGO for Winnebago county.

At about 4 p.m. Sprint figured out how to activate my aircard for so I 
had internet access with my computer, so I checked the ILQP web site and

figured out the "real" abbreviation for Winnebago.

Apologies all around.
