We'd like to congratulate David Elliot, W6BK, who led all other U.S.  
stations in VP8ORK band/slot count, with 18. David used his K3, and  
the VP8ORK effort used seven K3s. (Some EU stations worked them on all  
21 band/slots, but I don't have any information on these stations  
beyond that.)

David emailed us about his effort:

"The APF was particularly effective....The K3/P3 combination was  
superb. It really shines when things get 'down and dirty' as they  
often did on this DXpedition."

Note: Band/slot count is a combination of bands and modes. If you're  
interested in seeing how other stations did, go to

and type in a callsign. If you click on on a red link in the line that  
says "Leaderboard," you'll see the top 100 stations in a particular  
zone or country.

73,
Wayne,
