With the receipt of a QSL from 7X5QB in Algeria, my DXCC count reached 200 today. A friend of mine, K1SEA, had suggested I quit being lazy and start sending out QSLs. He was right. About three weeks after sending out a dozen cards, four have arrived from needed countries, and several others have shown up in LotW.
With these cards in hand, my DXCC Challenge count has moved up to 805. And I need 23 more countries on 80 meters for 5BDXCC.
