[ILQSO] Rare Counties.....Top 10

[Mark Caldwell]

This is my first year operating as a ham, and my first IL QSO Party, but a longtime resident of Kendall county. A full contest was a challenge as a newbie but I hope to have KEND covered now for years to come as a fixed station. I’ll also try and add CW in future years. It was a blast and I’m sorry I missed you this year.
