Title: QRP DXCC arrived
Post by: GM0LVI on February 10, 2015, 19:18:30 UTC

Two welcome arrivals dropped through our mail box this week.
QRPDXCC and a QSL from Pete ZL4TE for a 2x QRP QSO on 26th December (11730 miles / 18768 km). I don't think I can get any further so the only way I can improve on that is to do it with less power!

Congrats .... !!

Should be time to apply for a QRP DXCC too. Meanwhile 236 worked entities (QRP) and 200 of them are verified at the LotW ....   ;D ;D

236 worked QRP is fantastic Juergen!! ARRL require only a list of stations worked - no cards ot LoTW confirmations. Unfortunately the QRPDXCC is a once only award and there is no opportunity to upgrade with extra credits.

Good luck!
Dave

Hello Dave and all,

Congrats, it is great, and each time you upgrade with a new one, it becomes more and more difficult,
but always a lot of fun, and rewarding.-

Right now, I am stuck at 276 countries confirmed, all QRP, and I'm also doing QRPp below one watt into the milliwatt which is another challenge,which should take longer time Hi!


See you on bands,  ;D ;D
