Next week I'm taking a summer vacation in JA visiting to Japan Ham fair held on September 2-4 by JARL which normally used to be on the last weekend of August.
I'm not sure but the Official saying, changed the date of the Ham fair due to a preparation for 2020 Tokyo Olympic Game at same place.
The day of Ham fair also All Asian DX Contest PH is held too by JARL.......Who will be on the air ????
However Don't worry, Japanese contesters are choosing to participant in AA contest.

IOTA Contest report
Last weekend I was on IOTA Contest getting around 200 QSO including European stations on 20m band.
from Tonga on 15m band the propagation alwyas opened for JA but there were not many station looking for South Pacific.
On 20m band was well done however only from 17:00 to 20:00 local time for Asia , North America and few European.
Next I will on WAE contest CW.
A31MM
FT-991 ALS-500M vertical dipole.
Comparing IC-7300 and FT-991.
I have an impression, the reception audio of FT-991 is better as quiet than 7300, however 7300 is not terrible audio, and the function of 7300 is better than 991.
