[OKDXA] TX5N - Australs now QRT

[Jeff Martin]

  The TX5N - Raivavae, Austral Islands DXpedition is now QRT after 54,198
QSOs. Their original goal, as stated on QRZ.com was 60K to 80K, so they came
up a bit short of that, but 54K is a respectable total. They seemed to be on
the 10,12,15,17,20 meter bands a lot, the lower bands not so much. There
were many days in our early mornings when we would have had propagation on
the lower bands and they were simply not there. Continent breakdown was 28%
Asia, 24% Eu, 43% NA. I saw quite a bit of whining from the Europeans on the
cluster, but that's normal, and 24% is probably about normal from the S.
Pacific. I worked them on 23 of 25 possible slots. Missed out on 60 meters
FT8 and 80 meters SSB. They only had 419 QSOs on 60 meters (none the last 4
or 5 days, I listened) and only 53 QSOs on 80 SSB, probably some W6's and
JA's. 
  All in all, not a bad operation... Nice to have an active DXpedition on
the bands to chase. How did you do?
