I'm pretty close to that figure myself, but about a year behind you (25/11) 
left, and that numb-nuts was on 80 for me as well.

Last week was good for me. 3B9C and R1FJ (though 3B9 wasn't a new one). 
Before that, XF4IH and TO4E within a couple of weeks. Still waiting for 
5T0EU and T33C for all-time new ones from DXpeditions, and a UK8 that I 
think is a lost cause - another black hole. That Q was so rough, though, I 
just might not be in his log, so I'm a little more forgiving that for 
numb-nuts. Need H44MS, but I've been told he's a good QSLer - maybe mine 
got lost. I've e-mailed him with no reply. Everything else is just 
band-countries and I'm less worried there, except for 80 and 40. Even 40 I 
can live with cuz I'm only 3 cards away from DXCC there, and I expect those 
to be in in the next 10 days, tops.

80s my big-time effort now (or at least it will be in the fall/winter). I'm 
missing 11 cards on 80, most of which are from the spring, so I'm not 
panicking yet. Only really rare one that I don't have confirmed on 80 was 
Moldova. Well, Algeria as well, but 7X2LS is a QSLer (albeit slow). 
Everything else will either come through one of these days or has enough 
other resident hams that I'll just pop another one next season.

I'd also like to have 100 on 40 exclusively on phone (this submission will 
be mixed), but that can wait!
