[ADXA] New Member Stats - Lenny K5OVC and Pat W5VY

[Pat Patterson]

Lenny, K5OVC, has provided an update on his stats following confirmation from 
the DXCC Desk for a recent submission.  Lenny now has a grand total of 368 
entities Mixed.  Among ADXA members that is second only to Rick, K5UR.  Lenny is 
a diehard Phone Man and also has 368 confirmed on Phone.  That puts him at 
Numero Uno amongst his ADXA brethren and in pretty rare air with all DXers.  
Most of us have higher numbers on 20M....the band that is usually the 
best/easiest for long haul DX.  Lenny has 315 confirmed on 80M, 332 on 40M and 
353 on 10M.  That 10M mark is also best among the ADXA gang.  It goes without 
saying that Lenny has put a lot of time and effort in to achieve those numbers. 
To round out the list of "Top" finishes, Lenny has 322 entities confirmed with a 
YL on the other end of the QSO.  He believes that is a "World Record".   What 
speaks louder that the numbers is the friendships Lenny has made on the air.  
I'm asked on a regular basis if I know Lenny when I attend DX banquets or I'm 
working DX on phone.  Well done Lenny!

I've added DXCC on 30M and 12M and added a few on other bands.  I'm hoping I can 
make it to 300 mixed by the end of 2012.

Robert, ST2AR, was on 80M CW this evening.  I worked him at 03:54 on 3.521 and 
he was very loud.  It was right at his sunrise and his signal was booming (I'm 
not making this up!).  Robert (S53R) is very active and uses LOTW.  I've managed 
to catch him on 5 bands in the past 9 months.

73 es DX,
Pat, W5VY
