You just knew I’d have to chime in here :)



My score is 44 DX Visited, 5 DX operated from (K, C6, VP2M, VK, VP9).

Might be fun to see how some of our traveling TVARC members stack up on the countries visited list.

Hello FCG’ers.



There here is an interesting web site on which you can register the countries (DXCC Entities) which you have visited in your lifetime, and those in which you have operated (any bands or modes).  As a contester, you may have not heard about this site: DXFC.org.  In my case, I was chasing DX long before I got into contesting, so I was excited when I found out about DXFC.org several years ago.



Here is some info about the site.  Go to DXFC.org to create an account.  The site has recently been rebuilt, so existing users were asked to re-register.  In doing so, I had to try re-registering several times before I could pass the “recapcha” test.  Once I was able to get in, I could then see the menus: HOME, PROFILE, COUNTRIES VISITED, DXFC, UPDATE and LOGOUT.  Countries visited is intended to be countries in which you have stepped foot.  (In my case, I count a country if I have passed thru immigration).  DXFC is a list of all countries visited by the members of the site.  As posted on the site, “1050 DXFCers have visited 340 different counties out of a possible 340.  That’s 49,357 total DXFC visits.”  Active contester and DX traveler, Doug, K1DG has recently recorded that he has been in 101 countries and operated in 35.  My count is 86/30.



If you have a bunch of DXCC entities in your lifetime log, give DXFC.org a try.
