Claimed Score: 5224668

Software: RTTY by WF1B  v5.01 

RIG: FT-990 + PA

Antennas: 6-el Yagi for 28MHz
          5-el Yagi for 21MHz
          5-el Yagi for 14MHz
          Delta for 7MHz
          Delta for 3.5MHz
          1.8MHz dipole for receiving

We had some problems with the 80 meters antenna - fortunately just at
the end of the propagation on this band. However last contacts on 80
meters were made with 160m dipole. Poor propagation on 10 meters
We are very glad to see so many old and new friends on the screen.
Last year we managed to make 502 QSOs. This year 625 QSOs.
As you know Polish stations have separate class in SP DX RTTY. This
year our friends made contest effort from SQ6Z. Just after the contest
I had a phone call from Bogdan SP3RBR - one of the operators.  What to
say - our station will not take the first place for sure. Here are the
results of SQ6Z (there can be some mistakes in numbers but more or
less it is like this):

PS. Visit http://www.contesting.com/ and have a look at my article
"Let's meet SP7GIQ (CQ/RJ WPX RTTY)" where I described our CQ/RJ
operation as 3Z0WPX (sorry for some mistakes in the text of the
article).
