[Elecraft] Simple DXCC Questions?

[WILLIS COOKE]

The countries that no longer exist do not count for
DXCC.  They will credit you, but count only current
countries toward the official count, I think.  I am
not totally sure about for the initial 100, but I am
certain about when you start working for the Honor
Roll.

I have been DXing for 52 years and I only have 7
deleted countries out of 316, so it is not too big of
a deal.
