[ILQSO] Results

[Hank Greeb]

Well, I don't look at plaques, or whatever.  I just look at what the 
other four county line ops did.  I was very surprised to get a 5th place 
certificate for county line ops - I never expected it.

Perhaps I should have said "As a 4 county line portable, I only compete 
with other 4 county line stations (regardless of what the rules say.)"  
That's why I was surprised to get a certificate - I didn't bother to 
read the part of the rules concerning awards - I enter for the fun of it!

I ended my comment with "I personally think the ILQP gang does a FB job 
in getting things organized!"  We should cut them some slack, quite a 
bit of slack.

Further, the rules state that a plaque will be awarded to the highest-scoring IL Portable, and that certificates will be awarded to the top 5 IL Portables."
