The quest for DXCC and QRP began after I built the KX3. Before August 11, I had 47 QRP DX contacts. I had already achieved DXCC but not at QRP power. The ARRL has confirmed me on 113 DX entities
48: ES55 Estonia on August 11, 2012
49: YT3M Serbia (same date)
50:: S53M Slovenia (same date)
51: UW5Q Ukraine (same date)
52: SO2R Western Sahara (same date)
Number 48 through 52 sort of came through easy - all on the same date and with rather light pile-ups if any.
53: LA1J Norway on August 16, 2012
It took 2 more weeks before I could get the next two.
54: EA6NB Balearic Islands September 11, 2012
55: ZS1JX South Africa (same date)
It took another 2 weeks before I could get the next bunch. I had to start watching the DX Clusters.
56: KP2/K5WE US Virgin Islands - September 24, 2012
57: AD4Z USA (I had plenty of these - so I picked one from the September QRP Sprint
58: EW7LO Belarus - September 27, 2012
59: FY8PE French Guiana - September 28, 2012
60: OP4F Belgium - September 28, 2012
61: CU4ARG Azores - September 29, 2012
62: 8P6DR Barbados - September 29, 2012
The pile-ups are starting to get larger on the next few
63: ZA/OK1DX - Albania on October 1, 2012
64: HC2SL - Ecuador on October 2, 2012
65: ER1DA - Moldova on October 2, 2012
66: 5N7M - Nigeria on October 2, 2012
I had worked the next stations before but at higher power.
67: TG9ADM - Guatemala on October 4, 20t12
68: EI3KG - Ireland on October 5, 2012
69: HP1/IZ6BRN - Panamat on October 6, 2012
70: IS0IGV - Sardinia on October 7, 2012
I tried to work the Italian DXpedition to Chad TT8TT but the pileups were too big and the stations too strong. The other expedition is the one to Angola D3AA and the same problem there.
