DX
Year 2024 started with T32TT Eastern Kiribati and followed with great number of DX QSOs to Pacific Area such as ZL7D Chatham, C21TS Nauru, TX7W Austral Island, 3D2CCC Conway Reef, KH0/KC0W Mariana Islands, VP6WR Pitcairn, 3D2V Rotuma, V73WE, A35GC Tonga, N5J Jarvis or TX5S Clipperton on upper bands, A few of them even long path.
Africa was another source of new ones, some of them were TY5C Benin, , TT8RR Chad, A8OK Liberia FT4GL Glorioso and also other contacts like 5U5K Niger or after one and haf year again ET3AA Ethiopia.
Another great contacts to Americas CB0ZA Juan Fernandez, 3G0YA Easter Island, CY9C St. Paul Island and big surprise when I was calling CQ on 10m FM gave me a call FP5AC Saint Pierre Miquelon which is second contact total to FP.
I also finally catched some miissng Latin America countries YN0H Nicarague YS1RR El Savador, TG9ANF Guatemala.
Couple of days before Christmas I am happy to have 286 DXCC worked which means 37 new ones in 2024. I worked with 191 DXCC in the year 2024.

I was not that great like in the 2023, but in January I had a few meter scatter QSOs UT5DL, LZ1KU, RO3X on 2m and in June lovely ES to southwest. There was excellent september tropo with fantastic QSO to G, GW, even on 70 cm. My top 70cm ever is currently GW8ASD, nearly 1200km.
Contesting:
Almost no contesting this year. Only a few points distributed in CQ WW SSB (over 700 QSO) and a few others really with just a few QSOs.
Participating year competitions OK Maraton, Memorial OK1DKS and Milion Kilometers, all of them manage Venca OK1RH.
