    Hope to be active for a few hours both Saturday and Sunday from a top Bald Knob Mt (in Union county, near Alto Pass, IL) in my home grid of EM57.  
      With a little help from the XYL, who will help me sit up the equipment, will be active on 6, 2, 222, and 432 SSB and CW running a FT-736 barefoot.  Using a 3 element yagi on 6, a 5 element on 2, 7 aliment on 222, and 13 on 432.  Antennas will be on mast pipe and tripods.
      Unfortunately due to illness (diabetes, congestive heart failure, and stage 3 kidney disease) and germinate injuries to my ankles (I can't stand or walk without special hard clam shell boots (think Herman Munster style), I am not able to mount the type of contest operation from Bald Knob I use to do back a few years ago. But with my wife's help I hope to get on the air and offer the grid to as many as I can.  
      So look for N9LAG for a few hours both days, and hopefully I can add a multiplier or two to your totals and some contacts.
