Tonight I worked Jeff N1KDO on 160m phone.? In addition to being my first contact on 160m (maybe 2 miles as the crow flies), it was the 2000th band country for DXCC challenge.? Thanks Jeff!

I’ve submitted the application for the DXCC endorsement, and I’ll mail in the order for the DXCC challenge 2000 endorsement disc for the Challenge plaque tomorrow.? Now I can look forward to getting some non-junk mail!

Again, thanks Jeff!

Good job! What antenna did you use?

Used about 30W to the 80m dipole, with some help from the internal tuner on the TS-890.?

?

If I’m going to make much more progress on DXCC challenge, I’m going to have to get on 160.? If I’m going to get on 160, I’m going to have to get a better antenna.? Only one DXCC entity that’s within a couple of miles.? ?

Nice, Dave. You should see if anyone has a 160m Unihat antenna at Dayton. Had one before I dig the tower pit. It got me the high SSB GA award for one contest.
