[Dx-qsl] New DXCC Rules

Sat Jan 24 12:35:34 EST 2015

Please, spare us the dramatics.
DXCC has always been an individual achievement. Always.
DXCC has never been an equal footing competition. Operators use their own equipment, their own time, and operate from stations featuring different geographies and different topographies.

It used to be that a DXCC award was honored. It signified an achievement in
operating skills and station building. Now a square of toilet paper is
worth more.

In the next rendition, maybe DXCC will be like participation trophies for
little league... you know, everyone gets one just for "trying".
[pjd] Amen! This is what it's come to.
