Subject: [ADXA] New Member Standings for Steve, W5KI

Steve, W5KI, has provided updated DXCC Standings information.  Steve has added 14 New Ones and has his Mixed total up to 315.  He also added a big batch of band multipliers and now stands at 1829 for the Desoto Challenge.  Steve managed to do all that despite a major lighting hit on his hill top home.  The strike caught his garage on fire and took out lots of radio gear.  To add insult to injury, his well pump died and it was a major project to get it replaced.  So, he missed BIC time hauling water up the hill from his neighbor! 

We don’t have a degree of difficulty multiplier for DXCC but if we did Steve would be eligible for a big bonus!  Steve says he has lots of firewood stashed and is doing fine in the sub-zero temps and 4” of snow. 

73,

Pat, W5VY
