[OKDXA] New QSL Card of the Month

[Roger Simpson]

In regard to the question, “Who has worked Monk Apollo?”     I worked him on RTTY  on 17 meters. 
That was back in 2011. I have a physical QSL card from SV/A but the QSO is not in LOTW.
Back in the old days I’d have the physical QSLs checked by a local QSL card checker and then mail the paperwork 
to the DXCC desk.  I guess having entities entered into the DXCC records by the ARRL HQ does not result in
these QSOs showing up on LOTW. I have only this one QSO with Mt. Athos. I have not worked Mt Athos on any
other  band or mode. 

I am trying to finish up my 5 band DXCC. I have DXCC on 80, 40, 30, 20, 17, 15 but not yet 10.  I have QSLs on 10m in LOTW for 97 entities. I just worked and confirmed Paraguay a few days ago. Working anything on 10m in SA is not too bad right now. But AS and EU is very difficult. The are tons of “easy” entities in EU I have not worked on 10m -- such as Norway, Sweden, Denmark, etc. but I can’t even hear them. I do hear stations in SA working EU so when condx change I should be able to work some 10m stations in EU and finish up my 5 band DXCC.

Still haven't worked Mount Athos on any band or mode.  Did work Israel and
Turkey on 17m FT8 the past couple of days for new digital countries!
