If for some reason the US Cal Club doesn't fit for you:

My parents live north of Chicago in Lindenhurst, and I *might* be visiting
there for X-Mas this year.  Or if you get really motivated I live in Terre
Haute IN, which is probably only 3 hours south of you.  Only one point of
history but I have two recent cal'ed 3458As and a 731B.
