Whilst here at Fox Mountain Lodge, Rocky Sasaki JK1QHK/VK2GZN/4, the Kenwood engineer who designed the TS-50s, won the All Asia 48 Hour Contest in September 1995.
He scored 1,200,000 points in the Single Op/ Multi Band
section...... and the JA team that entered with a big effort in the Multi/Multi from the Philippines won their section with only 660,000 points.
You don't have to be a Rhodes scholar to do the math's on that.

CQ Contest...CQ All Asia Contest
