Regardless, Bob, a great effort. Congratulations.

I just did a quick check with Google Earth and VK6BE to VK2ZT is 3107km,
and VK6WG to VK2DAG is 3058km.

This assumes that VK6BE and VK6WG are in essentially the same place. Both
VK2ZT and VK2DAG are listed as living in post office boxes, however, there
is a considerable difference in the distance to Medowie (2ZT) versus
Gosford (2DAG).

On the strength of the available information you would appear to have the
record, Bob.

And 28MHz was once called UHF.
