       R17RUS (Russian Cup Special) was probably the most popular DX 
but there were others, S57DX (Slovenia), 5B4AJC (Cyprus) and HV0A 
(Vatican) for example.


          Not such a good overall week but still plenty of activity. I
 managed to work some DX myself this week A71AE (Qatar) and HS0ZIV 
(Thailand). What a magnificent antenna array he has, Optibeam 18-6; 
Optibeam 2-30,that is 18 elements 10m-20m/40m; 2 elements 30m.
