A huge pile of qsl cards turned up this morning, 49 for the 3B8/M1KTA trip in March 2008, that has to be almost the fastest turn around of qsl cards yet. I did also get one from my EU011 IOTA trip back in 2005 so qsl via buro can be much slower.
I never checked the logs as most are paper but from qsl cards my HB9/M1KTA confirmed DXCC count is now 28. HB0/M1KTA has 23 and 3B8/M1KTA, which was electronic is at 31 so far out of 58. No DXCC awards for those trips yet!

Operating location from a top in alps c2600m
Now this was a perfect SOTA location, I stayed on top overnight and used the flag pole to my right to support a 40m/20m dipole, you can see the fixture I connected to, the little ring clamp, as soon as the cable car stopped for the night out came the radio gear, it even snowed! If I had taken 2m yagi would have been amazing location as line of sight was > 80miles, the Eiger and Jungfau (Bernese Oberland group) are in the photo over my right shoulder. Temp dropped to below minus 15 but the morning operating the grey line was fun 100 or so QSO SSB qrp as HB9/M1KTA/P.
