I have a dumb question and since I haven't used my daily allotment yet, guess I
can fire away. ;-)))
With the upcoming Neth Antilles breakup and those old countries to be deleted,
after they have been deleted, can you still submit those deleted countries the
the DXCC desk for credit to your
Larry, you can still submit any deleted country, and it will count toward your
overall total. It will NOT count toward your honor roll status or toward the
challenge.

Larry,
You must submit deleted entity QSLs to ARRL for checking, not to a Field
Checker but as Tom says,
they all count toward your overall total. Deleted entity QSLs may be submitted
at any time. There's no
rush to get the PJs turned in before 10-10-10.

Deleted entities do not count towards Honor Roll. Honor Roll is the top 10
of active entities, not all entities.
I believe they count for everything else, since they were active entities at
the time you worked them.
Since we know that the two entities that comprise the existing Netherlands
I think the limitation on deleted entities being checked only at HQ was
lifted, as was the no older than 10 years rule on cards, a short time ago.
I will defer a definitive answer on that to the resident DXCC card checker
on the reflector. Considering that when he was kind enough to stop by
Yes. I got into the DXCC program in 1992. At the time I had cards for
several deleted countries I'd worked and confirmed as much as 20 years
earlier. I submitted them in 1992 and was given overall credit for them back
then.
I later also got credit for ST0 South Sudan, ZS9 Walvis Bay and ZS0
There are many awards that deleted entities do not count for such as 5BDXCC,
Challenge, Honor Role, etc.
Simple read the rules on the ARRL, DXCC website.
