Most-Logged Stations in CQ WW SSB 2016

The public CQ WW SSB logs allow us easily to tabulate the stations that appear in the largest number of entrants' logs. For 2016, the ten stations with the largest number of appearances were:

Callsign	Appearances	% logs
CN3A	8696	57
CN2R	8333	55
9A1A	8111	53
LZ9W	8072	52
PJ2T	7729	45
EF8R	7677	53
YT8A	7629	50
CN2AA	7268	51
PJ4X	7087	44
DF0HQ	6752	47

The first column in the table is the callsign. The second column is the total number of times that the call appears in logs. That is, if a station worked CN3A on six bands, that will increment the value in the second column of the CN3A row by six. The third column is the percentage of logs that contain the callsign at least once.

For comparison, here is the equivalent table for 2015:

Callsign	Appearances	% logs
CN2AA	15100	78
CN2R	10017	63
9A1A	9872	61
CN3A	9693	61
DF0HQ	9237	59
LZ9W	9045	56
HK1NA	8936	54
PJ2T	8456	51
K3LR	8310	54
EF8R	8254	57

We can also perform the same analysis for, say, a ten-year span, to show which stations have most consistently appeared in other stations' logs. So, for CQ WW SSB for the period 2007 to 2016, we find:

Callsign	Appearances	% logs
LZ9W	80063	57
DF0HQ	76871	57
CN3A	74097	58
OT5A	71180	55
K3LR	66814	51
PJ2T	66702	47
P33W	64957	52
DR1A	53237	46
V26B	55209	43
LY7A	55161	44

 For comparison, the table for the period 2006 to 2015 is:

Callsign	Appearances	% logs
DF0HQ	76024	59
LZ9W	71994	54
CN3A	69456	58
OT5A	66397	53
K3LR	65974	52
DR1A	65622	49
PJ2T	63768	47
LY7A	58901	49
P33W	58520	49
V26B	56197	45
