Reply to K3KU,

All good points, but

There's a difference between DXing and chasing DXCC entities. Too many DXCC
entities are artificial constructs to keep the elite donors appeased -- see
Pratas Island, Scarborough Reef.

In the past two years I have made four JA contacts from Florida, with 100
watts on CW and a wire in a tree -- ON 80 METERS. To me, that's DXing.
