[Dx4win] Last "new country"

Congratulations Brian, and look on the bright side: Maybe they'll add a new
one and you'll get to hear that wonderful "New Country" again!

Or you could just start from scratch.

Subject: [Dx4win] Last "new country"

Yesterday I heard my last "new country" from dx4win. I was surprised to see
it had changed to yellow in version 9, but I'll never see it again. First
and last time in yellow.

I was a holdout running version 1 since forever (actually it was version
1.12) where I even had my shack PCs running a 32-bit version of Windows 10
because dx4win 1.12 was a 16-bit program. On version 1, new countries were
still red.

I've been working/waiting 35 years for this day -  worked 'em all - and
dx4win has been a big help along the way. And I've just upgraded my shack
PCs to Windows 11 x64.

So my thanks to the Bouvet team, and I'm a little sad that I'll never hear
"new country" again from dx4win, but I'll still be working band fillers
until I go off to the old folks home and have to take down my towers.

Maybe I shouldn't count my chickens before they hatch as #340 isn't
confirmed yet, but confidence is high LOL.

Maybe I will get to hear it again when someone makes a new DXCC???

What a great hobby we have!

73!
