Not so far fetched as one might think -- if you can determine which county
in Ohio has the lowest population (Ham Wise) -- you can put that county on
the air and get a lot of action from the county hunters. Dxpedition to
Morrow County, Ohio (:-)

For a real challenge -- drive thru all Ohio counties as a rover and give out
Worked all Ohio county awards (:-) Some Hams have done this while on
vacation!!! Might qualify as a "Worked all Ohio Counties DXpedition" 88
counties in Ohio

Or a rare Ohio grid square -- the VHFers will pile up on you. An Ohio's
rarest grid square Dxpedition (:-)

Or a special event station commemorating the closing of the Ohio steel mills
and rubber plants. Dxpedition to Ohio's crumbling steel mills (:-)

With these you can be the pileupor instead of the pileupee. Great for the
ego and improve your contest skills.

If you live in the Indian ocean area-- Hocking County, Ohio might well be
rare DX (:-)

All in good fun -- or is it good DX -- ear of the beholder huh

Helen, I was thinking about activating Ohio next weekend. If I do,
I'll give further details in my next post.

You have no idea what a DXpedition
is my friend.

In truth, they know EXACTLY what a DXpedition is. It is a guy, a couple
of guys, or a battalion sized group of guys, off to another county,
another country, or an uncharted rock, simply to play radio for the fun
of playing radio.

Yes, you are. And merely by asking, you have demonstrated that you
wouldn't understand the answer.
