2015 was a pretty good year for DX.
At the beginning of 2015, I had just completed my fifth DXCC band (but not 80 meters), with 217 countries confirmed, and 918 Challenge points.
A year later, I have 245 confirmed countries (up 38), with both the official 5BDXCC plaque and DXCC Challenge plaques issued. In addition, I have DXCC on 8 bands (plus WAS on 7 bands — I still need 12 meters). My DXCC Challenge points stands at 1158
EDIT: Correct QSL in hand count down to 4, making total confirmations 245
