>>> My rover skin is itching again, darn it.   I've missed out on a couple of the recent contests, but the 222 Sprint is next Tuesday, Sept 28, 7 to 11pm.  222 is one of my favorite bands.  One thought is to run with a pair of loops, 100 watts, and 224 horsepower, to visit EN35/45/34/44 and some Wisconsin counties.  So my question is this - what northwest WI counties are guys still needed for WIVUCH ?   Douglas and Bayfield may be a bit too far for this one, but maybe Burnett, Washburn, Sawyer and south of there?  What you have to say may dictate if/where I go.
