For 160M events, N6RO patches much of his considerable antenna farm to his operating position.

DXCC count on topband from Europe is not in any way comparable to from DXCC from North America, where, depending on where you live, no more than five countries are within 2,000 miles. Working countries from Europe is like working States in North America.

From my QTH near San Francisco, once I get past VE, KH6, KL7, KP2, KP4,XE, CM, and a few Caribbean islands, the average distance is 5,000 miles. My current count is 171 in 16 years after moving here in 2006.
