From what I gather, Ned also was the first (and only?) from the West coast to reach 3000 in the DXCC challenge. You may see a couple other 6 calls in the listings but I believe they either moved Eastward or used internet remote bases.

An congrats for the Hall of Fame recognition from me too Ned.  And I confess I did not know you were also DXCC on 6 and on 2?!  That’s a big deal achievement in itself. Love the 2 meter EME array I just saw on your QRZ page.  EME is my next challenge which I dreamed about since a young teen.  Maybe when I retire from my full-time day job.
