There are 20,601 hams with mailing addresses in Michigan.  The
breakdown is as follows:  N 667, T 9088, T+ 906, G 4302, A 2067, E
3571.

Oakland County ARPSC is going to do the MIQP again as a training
exercise, to get our volunteers more familiar with HF.  It'll help
with the activity somewhat; maybe next year some of those folks will
operate the contest from their own stations.
