Several of my ham buddies (including one at the top of the Honor Roll), have described the DXCC process as easy to get the first 100, then more effort to get the next. They have warned me that after 200, things start to crawl. They are so right!
In the past two months, I’ve added 1 new country, 2 new countries for 80m, 3 new countries for 17m, and 12 new Challenge points, so I shouldn’t complain.
I’ve already met the goal I set for this year in terms of getting to 200 in DXCC. However I still have a way to go in terms of getting to 900 for the challenge. 80 meter DXCC is all I have left to complete 5 band, but I suspect I will get the 17 meter DXCC completed well before than.
Still slow progress is better than none, and there are lots of fun and rare DXpeditions coming up in the next few months.
