With a bit of time on my hands, and using some information and links sent to
me by persons responding to my post earlier today, I have compiled the
following list of All Time Topband DXpedition leaders for total 160 Meter
Qs.
The following list of 7 DXpeditions are head and shoulders above the rest of
the pack, so far as I have been able to discover in the records.
Most other major DXpedtions list total Topband Qs in the 2,500 to 3,500
range. Very interesting.
Enjoy, and if anyone has further information, please forward it to me.
Thanks, and have a great, leisurely weekend now that you don't have to
pursue K1N.
