During the last few months of 2008, a group of Kiwi DXers from the Kiwi DX Group have worked to set up The New Zealand DX Hall of Fame to honour those outstanding ZL DXers who have excelled in our radio sport hobby over many years.

DXing Milestones

Within the ARRL DXCC program there are three levels of achievement:

• Working and confirming 100 to 328 DXCC entities. = DXCC
• Working and confirming 329 to 337 DXCC entities = "DXCC Honour Roll"
• Working and confirming all current DXCC entities (currently 338) = "No. 1 DXCC Honour Roll"

The third award is the highest accolade and usually takes from 15 years to a lifetime to achieve.

Congratulations to the following ZL amateurs that have recently achieved the highest DXCC honour that a DXer can achieve world wide and joins a select few other ZLs that have actually done it:

• ZL3JT achieving ARRL No. 1 Honour Roll (Mixed) in August 2009
• ZL3JU achieving ARRL No. 1 Honour Roll (Mixed) in September 2009
• ZL2AFT achieving ARRL No. 1 Honour Roll (Phone) in October 2009
