[ADXA] New Member Standings for Earl, N5ZM

[patw5vy at gmail.com]

Earl, N5ZM, one of the original holders of the ADXA "DX Hog" award, has
provided updated DXCC standings information.  Earl is up in the 2900 range
of the Desoto Challenge and new band multipliers don't pop up very often.
He has added a new one on 80M (290) and 12M (334) plus two new entities on
6m (118).  His new Desoto Challenge total is now 2933.  Earl's adds that,
even though no one is counting, he has 153 confirmed on 60M now.  Earl
worked FT8WW on FT8 to bump his Digital total to 338.  Of the 338 digital,
337 are RTTY.  He was hoping FT8WW might run RTTY a little.  Based on what
we saw that might have been mayhem! The CW pile ups were rough enough.  Earl
now needs only Bouvet and Scarborough Reef to wrap up the Digital #1 Honor
Roll.  There is only one holder of #1 Digital Honor Roll, JA1JAN.  

 

In addition to the ADXA Hog award I seem to recall the Lone Star DX
Association naming him the "Hog" one year at their annual meeting/banquet.
Also, a DXpedition that Bob, K4UEE, led,  named Earl the leaderboard
"Hog"... all the boxes checked!  Earl has lots of experience "rooting
around" for DX.

 

73,

Pat, W5VY
