** DXCC Yearbook Includes Corrected DXCC Honor Roll: According to DXCC
Manager Bill Moore, NC1L, the 2007 Honor Roll list published in the
August 2008 issue of QST was inadvertently produced from a "corrupted
report feature" in the DXCC software. "Since the DXCC Honor Roll report
is too large for a line-by-line review, random samplings [of the list]
were checked and many [listings] were found to be okay," Moore said.
"It
was not until the complete report was published that we found the report
had more errors than originally thought. Publishing a simple correction
in an upcoming issue of QST is not possible. We have expanded the 2007
DXCC Yearbook to accommodate a complete reprint of the 2007 Honor Roll
list. This is something many of you have suggested in previous years.
The 2007 Honor Roll list will also be published on the DXCC Web site and
this list will be separate from the current 'live' online Honor Roll
list.
We regret any inconvenience caused by this and we appreciate your
patience and understanding." The 2007 DXCC Yearbook is the largest ever,
with an additional 16 pages, and features articles about the year's
DXing activities, the Clinton B. DeSoto Cup and DXCC Challenge
standings. The DXCC Yearbook is mailed free to all ARRL members who have
submitted a DXCC application between January 1 and December 31 of the
prior year or are current on the DXCC Honor Roll. Copies are also
available for $5 plus postage. To get your issue, please send an e-mail
to the ARRL DXCC desk <dxcc at arrl.org>. *
