Debbie KC9ULA and myself KO0Z checked out a potential uW site in Mason County, IL in EN50ce on Tuesday, September 11 in advance of the upcoming 10 GHz and Up contest. The site is in a high location in Mason county, IL. There are some trees to the north that could offer blockage to in WI. It may be possible to work Ron WZIH about 127 miles away. Zack in EN50rl looks good at 69 miles away. St. Louis is approximately 110 miles away to the southwest. Here are some photos of the site.
Looking west towards the tower site EN50ce along county road 850 N.
I believe there is a packet node on this tower.
