[ILQSO] Need some help in Indiana

It goes without saying (but, of course, I'm saying it....) that especially the mobiles and rovers need to be especially cognizant of road conditions due to potential flooding.  The last time I did INQP as a mobile, I had some rather abrupt surprises regarding closed roads, and this year is likely to be much worse.

Have a good Saturday, all.  I'll be counting birds in Illinois instead of handing out INQP contacts...sorry.

Looks as if there are still too many Indiana counties still needing coverage for INQP on May 6. We won't have a few of our usual mobiles and rovers for various reasons. So we need a few "neighbors" to cometo  Indiana and operate 
mobile, or rover, or portable in a few of those unclaimed counties.   Check 
out the map at http://hdxcc.org/inqp/activity.php

It would be great of we could get coverage for those 20+ counties from 20+ Indiana hams...but that's not likely. So allow me make an offer to our friends in Illinois and Ohio:

If we can get some folks  to cover the three open northern counties (StJo, Marshall, and Lake), as well as a couple more to cover Union and Posey, I will try to get the remainder....  i was hoping to operate from a fixed location this year, but plans change.....

So all you have to do is operate mobile or portable for an hour or two away from home, and I will bust a gut to make sure we have all 92 covered.

Whaddya say? Anybody want to help in the north, east and southwest parts of Indiana next Saturday?
