Since the club I am president of this year, Western Illinois ARC, sponsors the Illinois QSO Party, I thought I would take time to put in a plug for it. The Illinois QSO Party is held on the Sunday of the third full weekend of October. This year it falls on October 21st. Operating time is only 8 hours, from noon to 8 PM local time (CDST). The object is to work all the counties in Illinois and for Illinois stations to work as many Illinois counties and states as possible. What makes this contest fun are the MOBILES! We always have a dedicated bunch that will activate as many as 20 counties while on the road during the 8 hour contest. Stations can be worked on both modes for QSO credit.
