Perhaps you folks would consider a drive up to Wis. Dells.  We are 3.5 hrs
NW of Chicago.  Our lab is located in the country, 4 mi. south of Wis.
Dells.  We can make lots of noise into the late night hours.

We plan on firing up our "Big Bruiser" with a 28 ft. long spark running at
22 kva.  Could have a nice late afternoon cookout.

We've selected Oct. 14th (Mon. evening) as our annual "Open House" from 7-9
PM.  I don't see why we couldn't start with other small coils around 3 PM.

Just a thought.
