    And the question is did you work them ?

    How many people in the Red River Valley Amateur Radio Club
    would consider themselves as Dxers ?

    There are 340 Current DXCC Entities per the ARRL

    If you have within 10 of all of them
    IOW 331 or more confirmed, then you are eligible for the DXCC Honor Roll Award

    I personally know only Two Amateur Radio Ops that have all 340 Confirmed

    Just food for though and discussion is welcomed

    Cheers!
