For the Michigan Mini I am flying into Flint, MI and then will run counties in MI, IN, IL, and IA before flying back home from Chicago. Starting the morning of April 23 I will spend one day running southern MI before the convention starts. The rest of the run will begin early Sunday April 26. As usual, I will run from early in morning until way after dark. I will be in a rental car and will have to get out of the car to operate and change antenna for every band change. Therefore, I will not be able to run all bands as time will not allow. I will spot myself as long as have cell service. Please no phone calls, but feel free to text me at 901-331-1881. I will be monitoring the Slack group chat along the way.
