[ADXA] Franz Josef Land Confirmation

[WB5JJJ]

I've been checking LoTW a couple times a day.  Apparently mine were
uploaded just after my noon time check this afternoon.  Saw the ADXA
messages and checked again, and all were confirmed.  Still looking for "Z"
on 10, 40, 80 and 160, but not holding out much hope except maybe 40.  He
has been working Europe very steadily every day/night.  I guess his rotor
is frozen a bit east of south for him.  Well, the grayline is heading our
way, another night of watching and waiting.

I'm at 1945 Challenge points.  This year has been a bummer for new
Challenge points for me since I'm in the uphill climb now.  Best year was
2019 after all of my EFHW went up from the mid 80's to 281 in a year.  This
year is a paltry 59 so far.  But I'm sitting at 57.21% of the available
3400 slots.  Still a LOT of blank spaces in my spreadsheet.  I'm still
waiting on 2 or 3 DXCC to confirm either by LoTW or QSL Cards since they
will help out.

I'm now at 310 DXCC and need 30 more, many will not be active again in my
lifetime.

In case you haven't checked lately, 6m is pretty much dead this season.
But I did get several GS's for FFMA, but still need 4 elusive grids to
finish out that award.

There's always something just over the rainbow that I need.  The Pot 'o
Gold is just out of reach with the persistent Faraday cage over Arkansas.
