K3WA Loves DXing

OK.  I like DXing,  I may not be very good at it but I like it.  This is my "brag" page.  Sue me.

I'm up to 323 entities confirmed about 2180 for the DXCC Challenge.  I've achieved DXCC on all 9 of the HF bands.  I've been on top band for about 5 years.   I completed working over 100 entities in March 2010, and, after a long summer's wait, I finally received the 100th country's QSL card and completed my 160 meter DXCC qualification.

For the record, I got 8 of the 9 bands DXCC worked using just wire and vertical antennas and low to medium power while living in city lots.  It can be done!  160 Meters was the last band.  Next:  6 Meters!

Now comes the hard part - finding the patience to wait out the DX-peditions for the entities I still need to make the honor roll.  I am up to 324 so far.  Working them is fun - waiting for them is not!
