Ordinaly QSO 302
ALL ASIAN DX CONTEST SSB 1,127
※JA=88%
My call-sign changed to T88PB from T88ZD .
This time , I tried to join the All Asian DX Contest SSB .
I operated IC756pro but I did not know how to use VOX and I was operating by PTT Switch . It was so hard for my hand and I was so tired to speak ! (over 1000 QSO )
So , I decided to finish operation at the evning of sunday and on monday , I was going to the sight seeing !
I went to the Peleliu-Island . There was a big battle (fight) between USA and Japan on 1944.
But nowadays , that island was so calm . I prayed eternal peace .
Mainly 160m WW CW Contest & 80mCW using MV antenna (17mH) .
[Rig] IC-756Pro & JRL-2000F (500W)
I am sorry , the receiving skill was not good at 160m .
I am trying again on DEC/2018 or Jan/2019 with K2 .

This time , I used Korean Air via Inchon Air-port . Transit time was 4 hours and a half , but the air-port was very nice . I enjoyed to stay .
It is rare case for me to operate on SSB mode recentry . Very quickly spoke on 21MHZ in Japanese but total QSO was under 1,110 . KH2X Marty san was excellent he got over 2,000 QSO ! I was so surprised .
