Tom, thanks for noticing. Four weeks is still more than we would like -- two weeks was our service standard at one time although we've seldom met it in recent years -- but the DXCC staff is doing a remarkable job right now and I know we will see further improvement over the next several weeks. 73, Dave K1ZZ -----Original Message----- From: Tom Frenaye [mailto:frenaye@pcnet.com] Sent: Sunday, January 27, 2002 10:45 PM To: arrl-odv@p1k.arrl.org Subject: [ARRL-ODV:6901] Re: In-News At 01:37 PM 1/23/2002 -0500, HQ wrote:

Just in case no one noticed, 4 weeks is the smallest backlog we've had since September 1998. Congrats to Bill Moore and Wayne Mills for the effort! I guess the "hump" is over from the initial year of applications for the "DXCC Challange". -- Tom ===== e-mail: k1ki@arrl.org ARRL New England Division Director http://www.arrl.org/ Tom Frenaye, K1KI, P O Box J, West Suffield CT 06093 Phone: 860-668-5444
