Who would have ever thought it was possible? To work 100 countries on
160 meters in one season? How about with only 100 watts? Well VK9NS
was # 100 and C56/DK3FW was # 101. I started on 10/31/96. I worked
VK9NS after 3 schedules on 3/22/97. 143 days! I worked OH0A but OH2BH
told me it was a pirate. Thanks also to my neighbor (W3LPL) for the use
of his 4 square!
Worked:
3A, 3C, 4J, 4L, 4X, 5B, 5X, 6W, 6Y, 8P, 9A, 9H, 9X, C5, C6, CN, CO, CT,
CU, CY0, D4, DL, EA, EA6, EA8, EI, EK, EM, ER, EU, F, FM, FR, FS, G, GI,

What a great season! Countries worked w/ 1,500 watts (I do not own an
amp) this season:

Total countries worked this season 107. Total life time countries
worked 155. I hope next year is just as good. de Bernie
