I began to seriously consider DXing at the end of 2011 when a friend of mine pointed out that I had a number of eQSLs waiting for me at eQSL.cc. So I joined on December 22, 2011. Two months later I had 75 confirmed in their system, and a month after that I was at 96. I sat at 96 for the next five months, then quickly picked up three more confirmations in early August. While I was sure I’d eventually make eDX100, given the declining participation rate, I was concerned that I might not make it before eQSL ceased to exist.
With an eQSL from Laurent, TK4LS, my quest for 100 confirmed eQSL contacts came to an end today, about an hour after our 17 meter CW QSO. Thanks Laurent!
