What's your best VHF DX?

For me, I've gotten QSOs 280km on both 2m FM and 1296 SSB.

On 10GHz my best so far is 213km, SSB.

All those contacts were from mountain tops, mostly to people on other mountains or ridges.

I got around 1550km on 6m in the contest (CM88 to DM79, San Francisco to Denver), sideband and cw contacts. I was only running 10w to a dipole.

People in northern California with better stations were hearing even farther east!
