It wasn't the longest contact ever but I did manage Washington state from San Diego last weekend. running 2 watts into a WRC antenna from the QRP-Labs QDX.

Easter Island from Ireland, 100w CW on 20m.

Still haven't gotten into VK or ZL yet though

I think mine is Japan from Denver. I’ve done it a couple times but only with FT8. Still want a CW contact there!

I managed 10,953 miles, Illinois to to Australia on ft8. An ocfd dipole.

I was with someone when he heard the echo of himself coming around the long path.

That's super cool. Some day I hope to hear that.

Last weekend I worked Japan, New Zealand and Indonesia from our club station in McDade, TX on FT4. I don't recall the distance but it's up there. Of course, the antenna was at 80ft and it was 100W.

I still need to get proficient with morse code. I was trending toward that goal last year, but deviated off the path.
