*Introduction* Several DX Most Wanted Surveys are available worldwide. However, to our knowledge, there exists a need for a Most Wanted Survey for 160 meters ONLY. Such a survey will be useful to DXpedition planners in selecting DXpedition destinations. This in turn will eventually provide you with opportunities to add new entities to your log.
*2012 Survey* The 2012 Survey is at http://survey.hamdocs.com/?sid=11389 We (Garry, NI6T and Larry, K8UT) initiated this survey for the 2011-2012 season and received submittals from several hundred North American and European topbanders, but relatively few from the other continental areas. Last year's results can be found at the link listed below.Several DXpedition planners have already incorporated these results in their planning. For the 2012-2013 season, we expect increased participation by stations in Japan and other Asian entities. We shall continue to seek submittals from other continental areas as this survey becomes more established. *You can help expand the scope of this survey!* The addressee list above is our initial target group and is by no means complete. If you can provide email addresses for additional national amateur organizations, DX clubs and DX publications, we can spread the word and produce a more complete survey. Particularly needed are South America, VK/ZL, Africa and Asia. Send your info to Garry, NI6T, ([email protected]) and don't worry about dupes. <[email protected]> *How to use the Topband Most Wanted Survey* The Topband Most Wanted Survey provides 160m DXers worldwide the opportunity to specify which DXCC countries they "need". For the purposes of this survey, "need" is defined by you, the DXer. Please fill out both Part I - /Ham Contact Information/ and Part II - /Most Wanted Entities/. Then press the Submit button. Your personal information will NOT be shared with anyone. Please enter ONLY entities needed on 160 meters. Please submit your needs list between now and August 31, 2012. Modifications submitted after August 31, 2012 will be used for the following year's survey. The results for 2012-2013 will be available in September, 2012. Thank you for your participation and Good DX on Topband!
