[ADXA] DXCC Challenge - The Official Standings

[w5znjoel at gmail.com]

The official DXCC Challenge confirmed standings are maintained by ARRL and
are automatically updated when you submit an update to your DXCC record,
whether through LoTW or by having cards checked in person. K5UR, W5ZN, and
now K5EJ have reached the 3,000 mark, noted as the pinnacle of DX
achievement beyond #1 Honor Roll or winning the DXCC Challenge Cup. The
"3,000 Club" currently only has 297 DX'ers in the world who have achieved or
exceeded the 3,000 level. You can view the official confirmed standings on
the ARRL website at:

This is a searchable pdf that you can use to find your callsign if needed.
The only ADXA member nudging up to the 3,000 mark is Earl, N5ZM, confirmed
at 2973 and he has additions forthcoming with his next DXCC submission. W5VY
is at 2590, K5FUV at 2506, and K5YCM at 2473. If you believe you are close
to 3,000 then you need to get CONFIRMED now. Claims are nothing more than
that, a claim.

 

The really great thing about the DXCC Challenge is it only counts current
DXCC entities from 160 meters through 6 meters (excluding 60 meters,
obviously) for a total possible number of 3,400. No one has reached 3,400!
It does NOT include deleted DXCC countries you may have confirmed. So you
are all on an equal playing field against those of us who may have more than
340 DXCC countries confirmed since some of our total numbers include deleted
countries. Not so with the DXCC Challenge.

Get those "claimed" numbers CONFIRMED!!
