The 63nd International DX Convention in Visalia, California USA was held  
this past weekend, April 20-22, 2012. The Friday evening Top Band Dinner was  
once again sold out. A lot of calls were finally matched to faces!
 


Special thanks goes to Bob Allphin, K4UEE, for his outstanding  
presentation of "HKØNA, Top Band from Malpelo." The efforts of  the entire team to 
activate this rare and logistically difficult DXCC entity  on all bands and 
modes was truly extraordinary. They had over 5000 QSOs on Top  Band.


"Congratulations to the team for breaking the record for  most QSO's by a 
"tent and generator" DXpedition!  QSO total is  195,292."
