[ILQSO] questions

[Jim Funk]

Cluster is fine. Encouraged. Instead of the DX cluster try www.w6rk.com/ch. That's where most of the county hunters hang out.

We quit recommending frequencies some years ago.  CW types hang out somewhere between 30 and 50 up from bottom. Someone who works SSB will have to comment on phone freqs. On six, check 50.130. On two, try 146.49 or 146.55. Avoid .52. 

I will try 40 in every county and 80 in most of them, especially after 2000z or if 20 slows down.

Just reviewing the rules

1. Is using the cluster ok? The rules don't say.

2. Are there recommended freq.?

3. Any mobiles going to stake out a freq?

4. Are any of you going to look on 40 and 80 in the afternoon to work
counties? Any thoughts on doing that? Maybe top or bottom of the hour?

I will be operating from Peoria County on both modes. It would be nice to
work some of the mobiles during the day as you move from county to county.
