> of which 14,041 in CW and 11,054 in SSB, 1,532 in RTTY, 300 in PSK and
> finally 37 in SSTV from 10-160 meters although it is better to say we
> worked mainly from 17-160 meter due to the bad propagation. The QSO
> statistics can be found on out web-site. Despite the lots of Europeans
> in the log we worked outside Europe every oppurtunity we had. There
> have simply not been that many openings unfortunately. Despite of that
> we are very happy with the result. The on-line logs have now been
> finalized so all QSOs should be visible on our web-site. The LLDXT
> web-site will be updated in the coming days with pictures and
real-audio
> files. I like to thank the Europeans for the many times they had to
> QRX to allow us to work the 'rare' DX, a great example it can be done
