[Dx-qsl] what counts?

[Steve Litwins]

Hi Gary;
That is by far from a stupid question...far!  I was also confused after I
got back into radio after business years.  The old OK was deleted and qsos
with new OK and OM count for new entities now.  You have to work both to get
credit for both.  The old OK counts for nothing re: current entities.  The
DL and Y# are the same...deleted.  In their place is now just one Germany
DL.  So...out of one old OK came two for the Czech situation, and out of two
for he two Germanys, came just one new Germany.  So...ur total will not
change either.  Hope this helps...73/dx
steve, k8wk
