Works for me. Don't need to chop down trees for those of us on the Net and
don't need to see our call in print.

Why not just make the Yearbook available as a .pdf file. It could easily
be whatever number of pages is needed for all listings to be shown. Then
anyone wanting a paper copy just needs to print it out.

Subject: [DX-CHAT] DXCC Yearbook
In looking back at past issues of the DXCC Yearbook, I find that the 1993
(my first year in it), the DXCC Listing was 19 pages long. The 2002 issue had
27 pages to the list. It is obvious that participation has grown quite a bit
over the years, and you would think that ARRL DXCC would enjoy this and want to
nurture it. DXCC Challenge is something new that they came up with and started
promoting heavily around 2004. Its 12 pages replaced the DXCC listing in that
issue, and the DXCC Listing has never returned.
The DXCC Challenge list has now been removed and replaced by the 5 page
160M DXCC List (what do we need this for with its limited number of
participants). The rest of the 32 page Yearbook contains DXpedition related
articles like we get every month in "How's DX". There are many DX reports that
contain this kind of information and we don't need the DXCC Yearbook to just
get more of it. Let Bernie do it in his column, and put the DXCC Lists back in
the Yearbook. It is what the Yearbook was all about a few years ago, and it
should be returned to that status.
