I make a lot of use of WSJT ham radio software for MoonBounce and other DXing, so this guy is my hero:

50MHz EME Countries /Initials worked so far from G8BCG (GJ8BCG/P initials here)

As of 23rd November 2023 I’ve had over 480 50MHz EME QSOs. At an average path length of 768,000km that's around 368,000,000km i.e. over 368million QSO kilometres or over 228 million QSO miles :-)
