RE: [DX-NEWS] [DX-CHAT] Deleted vs Expunged
Funny, that is how I think its done... I am at top honor roll with all possible countries worked and confirmed - along with a bunch of stuff that is no more... Thus my total is about 350 - but that only goes for bragging rights because everyone with top honor is at 335... So what is the big problem... I used to think it was stupid to keep stuff on the list that was no longer on the air (Back then ZA, BY etc.) but eventually I got them. Today EVERY NEWBIE wants everything NOW... well sonny, it just doesn't work that way... you have to earn your place in history and it doesn't happen overnight. 73' Bill K2NJ -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Charles Harpole Sent: Monday, June 16, 2003 11:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [DX-NEWS] [DX-CHAT] Deleted vs Expunged Looks like everyone can be happy IF: old-timers are allowed to keep their all-time acquired entity number but they and everyone else will be top of the honor roll only by confirming all CURRENT entities.

My personal conclusions after reading the messages are: Both TH6 and KT34 have almost the same forward and Front/back gain but the KT34 is weather and high power proof since it has no traps. KT 34 is also consider free maintenance and very high wind resistant (100 miles/h). TH6 has bigger boom and in consequence just a litlle bit bigger forward gain in 20 meters (only).

Although I am sure he has part-time help from others with this monumental task, he also has a life, and is doing this as a volunteer---as in "gratis".. All you or anyone else in the audience did was to work D68C, fill out cards, and mail them. Your "job" is done, while his is enormous and just beginning. Having participated in three major DXpeditions and several minor ones, it amazes me that DXers expect prompt "service" when the service dispenser is a volunteer, and the service is a hobby. I think it is reasonable to allow a year for an operation of this magnitude to chew down the QSL mountain. And every inquiry from an impatient DXer that is courteously replied to kills ten minutes of the manager's time, during which he might have opened 50 of those unopened envelopes. If you indeed "hounded" him, the fact that he replied at all, and courteously, speaks well of him. The scale and scope of modern mega-DXpeditions has changed DXing. Unless and until more efficient QSLing methods, involving the Internet, are in place, QSLing will remain the longest and most tedious phase of the operation.
