The October meeting of the WIARC will be held on October 5 at 7:00 PM at the
Red Cross in Quincy. There will be a program by N9JF on working the Illinois
QSO Party after the business meeting.

The Illinois QSO Party occurs on Sunday October 16 this year and runs from
12:00 noon until 8:00 PM local time, 1700 through 0100 October 17 UTC. Last
year was another record for logs turned in but we still only had a handful
of club members get on. Please spend a few hours making QSO's during the
ILQP this year. If you are not sure what is needed to operate of log, come
to the meeting and ask your questions, or if you cannot attend, I am sure
N9JF would be glad to answer you questions via email. ILQP rules can be
found at https://w9awe.org/ilqp/ Read through them prior to the program so
you can have an idea of questions you may want answered during the program.
There is an email reflector used mainly for posting activity and getting
questions answered http://www.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/wiarc The list is a
great asset in preparing for and operating the ILQP. Find out what logging
software everyone likes best, call signs of the mobile and rover stations
(as well as their intended plans) and know ahead of time what portable
stations are going to be on those semi-rare county lines and corners. You
can join the list at the posted link.

See you at the meeting October 5.
