Thanks Randy and N2NC Team for remembering my 45 years ago victories from
9Y4AA on both modes in '69. My "killer station" was comprised of a Collins
S-Line, 30L-1 amplifier - never pushing the four 811A's past 600 watts out.
Antennas were a Hygain TH6 tribander, Hygain 14AVQ vertical for 40, and
inverted V for 80. No 160. Of course, no computer. No memory keyer.
Paper and pencil, with eraser.
As I seem to recall, I did 48 hours straight, both modes, having just moved
from ZD8Z three months earlier, where 48-straight was a must.
Oh to be young(er) again.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] CQ WW Online Database adds 1969-1970
N2NC and his team of typists have added two more years, 1969 and 1970, to
the CQ WW Online Score database. Hard to believe now, but the CQWW in 1969
only had 1,376 logs on SSB and 1,628 on CW. The world high winner in that
year was Jim Neiger (now N6TJ) operating as 9Y4AA.
Look up your call and see how your CQWW scores have changed over the years.
