April 2014 Wrap-Up

Seems like the closer I get to 200 countries worked, the slower they come. After working 24 new countries last November, I only worked 4 in December, 5 in January, 3 in February, and 5 in March. This month the famine continued with just four new ones -- Tonga, Palau, Wallis and Fortuna, and Svalbard. On the confirmed front, I received 31 productive QSLs (by "productive" I mean QSLs which actually count for something); these include 6 new Mixed and 10 new on CW, plus a bunch of new band slots. I finally broke the 100 barrier on 40m, too, and now stand at 102 confirmed on that band.
