2012 Challenge–Are we there yet?

I have good news and I have bad news.  The good news, with less than 60 days to go, I’m happy to report I’ve managed a QSO per day for over 300 consecutive days this year.   The bad news, my streak of working one new DX entity each month has come to an end.  However, the 2012 challenge was not about working a new DX entity each month.  That was just simply a product of being more active in the shack.  I’m focused to continue to push and complete my 2012 Challenge.
