Charles,
Understand the quick QSO deal..however, it isn't even
possible for a rare country to come on for 3 weeks or less
and rag chew with stations? Supply and demand doesn't
permit that.
Wanting to rag chew with DX stations is fine, but it can not
be looked down upon if a DX station is a

Off the coast of Dover there's a sandbank called Goodwin Sands. It's a
shifting and treacherous sandbank that lies just below the surface of the water
and has claimed many shipwrecks over the years.
Goodwin Sands only rises above the sea at a couple of very low "spring" tides
each year.
Yep - it's the Worldradio Worked-100-Nations (W-100-N) award. The
original award rules required that you not only work work stations in
inhabited countries, but that you work citizens of those countries (not
visitors). They were relaxed a bit so you can work a visitor who has a
non-portable
Sounds like WorldRadio's Worked 100 Nations award.

Why do you feel that each entity should have a permanent population?
Why not start a seperate award for that instead?

Well, then maybe you should petition for an "operating table and
chair" clause to be added to the DXCC rules.
Then anyone who just wants to string their dipole in the palm trees
and lounge in the sand with their head up on a log with their K2 on
their belly doesn't count for DXCC.
Or all you'd h

Barry,
Let's not forget that rules changes in the last few years, including but not
limited to the "DXCC 2000" rules rewrite, will prevent the equivalents of
many of the "stupid" or questionable entities from ever coming into
existance again. Until the next re-write or amendment, of course... and
set up a table on the rock.

Agreed ... where it s not possible to even set up a table for
operating without first building a platform to create a level
