QRV from Boothill, EM59ji







The Macoupin County EMA Director, Jim N9LQF told me about a hill he'd driven by that he thought would be great for microwave activity.  So, last Sunday I went along IL Route 16 just outside of Ohlman, IL.  It is about 75 feet or so higher than the surrounding countryside and the only thing on top of the hill is a cemetery. It is clear in all directions! This will be perfect for microwave activities.  It is located in EM59ji which is about 32 miles southeast of my Girad QTH.  I plan to be QRV from that site, weather depending, for the May MAD.
