[ILQSO] Possible Portable Operation

[John Holmes]

Josh,
I believe I was "the mobile" that Hank was referring to when I operated as W9TY/M. I may be doing that again this year, but plans are not definite. Email me directly with questions you might have.
73,
John W9ILY (OP: W9TY/M)

I can vouch for the Ford/Iroquois/Kankakee and the 
Ford/Livingston/Kankakee lines.  I had a series of messages from a 
mobile, who showed pictures of excellent possibilities for fixed sites 
when I was considering them last year.  I can't find the correspondence 
I had at the time, but I was seriously considering one or both of those 
places from which to operate before the WINN/BOON/OGLE/DEKA four corner 
spot was offered.
