N0UN DXCC Bandfill Chart. This is an Excel sheet I made years ago to help me quickly mark band/mode Q's for several DXpeditions I'm chasing at a glance.
The post N0UN DXCC Bandfill Chart first appeared on N0UN.net.I’m on my way home from the HamSCI 2023 Conference, and while waiting in the airport, I thought I’d record some first impressions.
