 Congratulations to everyone who now has a new country on 160m!

Unfortunately for asian HAMs  from CQ- zones nr 19, 23,24 and 25  K1N activity 
on 160m has become one of the most unfortunate.

Zone 25 = only 22 QSOs
Zone 19 = 1 QSO (there is another QSO, which is held at 04:00UTC, it's either 
operator error expedition, or is someone's bad joke)
Zones 23 and 24 = 0 QSOs.
Of the total number of contacts at 160m on 19,23,24,25 zones is less than 0.48%.

My friend said that we now have to live another 22 years longer and wait for 
the next expedition to Navassa! Hi-hi-hi -:))
