[ILQSO] counties still open

[James Funk]

I can skip Scott on the way out and try to pick up Mason, then skip Calhoun (W9WE will get it) and go from Adams to Pike to Scott and then to Morgan, Greene and Jersey.  If KC9QAE gets Macoupin and Jersey, that will be terrific!  I will probably also not get McDonough (KA9MOT covering) or Hancock (AB9QW). 

So...my route (now) looks like:  Brown, Pike (briefly), Morgan, Cass, Mason, Fulton, Schuyler, Brown (again), Adams....(hiatus)...Pike (longer), Scott, Greene, Jersey, Calhoun.  Jersey and Calhoun are iffy.

It is getting worse, we now need someone in Menard and Mason county, the mobile that was going through there has changed plans. I know there are few active hams in Menard but Mason may be tough to fill. Historically it has been mobile territory most of the time.

Sangamon Valley Radio Club (aka "The Springfield Guys") will be Sangamon County only. We are operating from the American Red Cross parking lot in Springfield this year.

Several unsuccessful attempts have been made to contact someone in the Taylorville (Christian Cty) club.
