[ADXA] New Member DXCC Standings for Michael, NO6O

[Michael Reynolds]

Thank you, Pat.

Actually, the bulk of my DXCC contacts in LoTW are from my base station, 
which I've only had for a couple of years.  I have a IC-7610 with a 
simple vertical antenna.  I didn't start using LoTW until I finally got 
the station set up.  We moved from southern California to here in 2016.

When I lived in California, with the exception of some portable 
operations, all of my contacts were mobile, using a Little Tarheel II on 
the hatch of a Toyota Matrix, using a IC-7000 and 100 watts. Some of my 
contacts were PSK-31, which concerned some people at the other end, 
thinking I was in motion!. Over the course of about 10 years, I 
collected almost 90 paper QSLs toward DXCC.  After moving here, my 
Matrix was totaled, and I was off the air for quite a while, until I got 
the military surplus truck.  But, I never accumulated enough paper QSLs 
to finally apply for DXCC.  So, with LoTW, I more like started over.  I 
am using HRD, and according to Ham365, I have reached 150 entities, but 
only 113 are confirmed.

Michael, NO6O
