[jayw5jay]

Hi Earl,  Sorry about the mix up with K5UR.  Remember that was before my time, grin. Your DXH award down at Hamcom was not.However from this point on Rick K5UR will be known as the OG DX Hog. 😀Thanks!   73 jay/w5jay..P.S. can't wait for someone to ask what OG stands for, LOL.Sent from my Galaxy

Thanks for the kudos Jay. But I have some issues with your comments. ;-))
First K5UR was the original DX Hog.
Next I think anyone who adds 56 new ones on a single band and 277 to challenge is a true DX hog.
See Ya in the pileups.

Earl N5ZM..

Congratulations Earl that's a huge accomplishment even for the original DX Hog!


I still remember you getting that award when we were at Dallas Hamcom Convention.


I was just starting out my DX Journey and to be honest I didn't fully understand this DXing Obsession back then or fully comprehend what it was about. I wonder how many years ago that was?


I hadn't even heard of the DeSoto challenge or if it was even an award back then?

Earl, N5ZM, has provided updated DXCC Standing information.  Earl has padded his already big numbers with added band counters across 160 to 6M. He added 15 to his Desoto Challenge total bringing him up to 2929.  Looks like he has worked
 just about everything that has been on the air!  His DXCC Honor Roll “Need List” is P5 on CW and 3Y0B, FT5W and BS7 on RTTY.  He also has 150 Worked/137 confirmed on 60M…just for fun! 

 
His 40M beam has been down for maintenance and repairs.  He hopes to have it back up soon.
 
Thanks for the report Earl.  Nice work finding new ones while you are getting close to the Desoto Challenge 3K level.  
 
73,
Pat, W5VY
