Hello ...
Jerry you are completely right if you are only collecting DXCC entities (no
matter which mode and/or band), but many active DXers and I really think most
of us are collecting different modes and bands...so Paul's idea is not bad but
it takes a lot of time and i am missing the meaningful order for all my
non-needed DXCC (i need only KP1 and KP5 MIXED)...
the question which gives us a "meaningful order" should be: "in which modes and
on which band do you need a certain DXCC"...for example: we all know that Yemen
and North Korea are rare but for expeditions especially interesting is the
information on which bands a certain entity is more needed...a simple example:
i do not need ZS8MI for MIXED but i have only one 17 SSB QSO ..so i would love
to work ZS8MI in CW/RTTY and of course on all HF bands except 17 M..so I think
Paul's idea is not bad but the "meaningful order" should be no guess but the
question "in which modes and on which bands a certain DXCC is still needed"..if
the question is: on how many bands and modes have you worked the following DXCC
(following a list complete list of all DXCC) DXpeditions would get a much more
better base for decisions than at the present time...i know it takes time but
it is our hobby...

There is no meaningful order if you don't need them!

I agree with Jim. I need only 3 and it would take me much more than 90
seconds to list another 98 in any meaningful order. The survey ought to permit
entering only those which one needs.
