The best bands were 30 m (29%) and in particular 10 m (65%) with a lot of contacts across the Atlantic ocean as the picture shows. In total 62 different entities/countries were contacted.

| The polymath Pythagoras was born on Samos and his birthplace village is now called Pythagorio. |
The antenna is a quarter-wave vertical for 30 m which also tunes several other bands. It’s on the balcony with a 7 m Sotabeam glass fiber mast, on the left-hand side of the street in the image below.
I seem to be able to contact stations between Samos and the Netherlands, Canary Islands, and Saudi-Arabia as the longest distance. Considering that Pythagorio on Samos is facing south with a hill in the main direction towards Northern Europe, this isn't too bad.
I’m using a 10W UT5JCW transverter for 6 m. Sadly, that business is now closed due to the war.
By mistake I initially took the callsign to be SV5/LA3ZA. As is evident from the comment below that is wrong, as I am one island or so too far North for that. I will unfortunately therefore not be able to confirm any of those contacts.
