You guys make me feel bad since in 1969 (K4IA/KC4) I was the only 160 meter op from Navassa and didn't crack 200....but that was with a 170 foot wire strung rock to rock across Lulu Bay with a pair of Drake Twins and a series capacitor against the railroad track that was there as a sort of ground. The good news is that I worked the all of the faithful TB stalwarts of that era including W1BB Stew Perry who was chasing TB DXCC as others were.

Great show.  To put it in perspective:

Malpelo -- HK0NA, Similar to K1N, has the record for Topband Qs as far as I know. Anyone have the Topband numbers?

The Baltic Sea island a few years ago, right in the heart of EU, is # 2. Anyone have the Topband numbers?

I just had a short chat with Jerry on 40 meters and he reported they
logged over 5,000 contacts on 160 meters.
