Nice progress Mike.

 

Mike has entered the DX Marathon for 2026.  He became interested last year and finished 2025 with 76 entities and 25 zones.  For 2026, he currently  has 92 entities and 27 zones in the FT8/4, 100W, Formula 100 category.  Happy hunting in the Marathon Mike.

 

I seem to recall  that DX Hog Emeritus, Earl, N5ZM, won the Marathon-RTTY top spot back when RTTY was the principal digital mode.  Earl and Glenn, N5RN, used to enter the CQ WW RTTY test as a Multi 2 team and always placed well…even giving the east coast gang a run for their money.  Glad the Marathon is still alive and well.
