Now I'm back at home and somebody ask me:

I'm in your 6m or 160m log?   I can say NO! I never was QRV on 6m or 160m!

Mission results:

10.371 QSO's made frome 3B8 in March/April 1999

80	40	30	20	17	15	12	10	SAT	SSB	CW
144	698	575	2528	500	1944	948	3023	11	5729	4642

So sorry for the very low numbers of QSO on 80m and on satellite. But I have do my best on this frequencies.

BTW, I think the 20m result was a good one. Before I start the trip this year I've planned to make about 1500 QSOs on 20m, because last year there was a big problem with the europeans. So I have learned something from 1998 mission and changed my operating procedure (I believe into a better one). The result was more and better contacts.

AF	AS	EU	NA	OC	SA
62	1349	6999	1823	52	86

Sucessfull this year was also to work more stations outside of europe. You can see at the table above ... do you believe that always, when  I call CQ NA or  CQ ASIA/PACIFIC some stations come back with this:

 call europe, . ..-  or  . ..-   ..--...

That's true.
