One factor influencing the results is that topband has not been a focus
for DXpeds for all that long. Time was that 2000 Q's was considered a
major achievement and that was not so long ago. Pretty much the same for
RTTY. Operating time used to be assigned grudgingly. The numbers have

ZY0T did work some 160m in October 2009.
119 QSOs : EU 79; NA 32; SA 8
I was lucky with that one.
Maybe ask PY1NB what he used for antenna on TB.
They were only on for 4 days.

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

The K1N final numbers are in.
