[Dx-qsl] 2007 DX Yearbook

[Wes Quinn]

I finally received my 2007 DX Yearbook yesterday via the mail!  Woohoo!  It has some great articles in it, especially from Vlad (UA4WHX).

It only has 8 pages of articles, because Bill (NC1L) mentioned that (per comments he has received) to add the DXCC Annual List again. That list takes up 39 pages!  I think that is such a waste, since any member can get it off the web for free and it doesn't cost the ARRL much to do that.  I would rather see more articles in the yearbook than a listing of DXCC callsigns which is already outdated, since the info changes so often these days.

Previous years had 20+ pages of articles, so apparently publishing the calls in it takes away from that!  Oh well, maybe next year they'll have more articles instead of the list.  I really enjoy reading the dxpedition year in review.

Maybe ARRL can put up a voting option on their web site to see which way people prefer?  More articles with no list OR less articles with the list?

And now back to dxing.  ;-)
