This bug has already reached it's eastern destination (W1AW in Newington, CT).  It's time for it to head back towards Northwest Indiana.  Thank you!
=====================================================================================================
I've been a licensed Ham Radio operator for over 12 years. I have contacted places all across the country and world.

I would like this Bug to make it to the American Radio Relay League Headquaters in Newington, CT and have it's picture taken in front of it's historic station (41°42'53"N 72°43'37). Once it's reached it's destination, I would like to see it make it's journey back to Northwest Indiana.

Along the way, it would be fun to see picture of the bug with radio related items such as antennas and towers.
