Station is finally noise controlled with addition of Icom 756 Pro III. I use my Yaesu FT-847 for VHF/UHF and I have an MA5B beam at 40 feet for 10-20M and a pair of MA8040Vs in an array for 40/80M. Having an Alpha 99 helps!

DXCC Status
A contributor states, "Currently there are only two countries that do not issue Amateur Radio licenses to their citizens, Yemen and North Korea. Thousand of deserving Ham's worldwide who enjoy working DX are shut out of any hope of obtaining the #1 Top of the Honor Roll status due to this. It would seem rational that these two countries (and any others who take a similar position) should be deleted from the official DXCC list in view of this. Why recognize a country on the DXCC list that does not recognize Amateur Radio? What say you?"
