Welcome!
What is DXFC?
The ‘F’ in DXFC stands for ‘Feet’: countries in which you have stepped foot. This is for licensed radio amateurs who like travelling. We DXers know all about DXCC so this is just our bit of fun. It works with the same 338 current ‘entities’.
You will need to create an account in order to enter your score. Do this by clicking on the 'Login/Create an Account' link above. Once that's done you can enter your DXFC score by clicking on 'Update My DXFC' in the modules section on the left.
Rules
Step foot in a DXCC entity (current at the time of the visit) to count one point, even just on the tarmac or jetty is enough. Staying on board while in transit does not count. You don’t need to pass through immigration. That’s it. No more rules! No confirmation required. There is no FAQ: answer your own questions! It’s not complicated - it’s just fun.
Register with your ham radio call-sign and claim your countries by ticking the appropriate boxes. The web-site will even count them up for you. Update whenever you like.
Veni, Vidi, QRV! There is also a column to score points for being QRV in each entity: preferably a proper operation, but we each have our own rules for this.
Articles and Soapbox
Upload stories, articles and your own blog. Describe your latest contest trips too. Other DXFC'ers are waiting to hear how you got on, what you did, etc.
Updates and Additions...
17 Aug 08 - The prefix for Bosnia-Herzegovina has been updated to E7.
14 Dec 07 - St Barthelemy (FJ) has been added as a new DXCC entity, bringing the total DXFC count to 338.
24 Dec 07 - The prefix for French St Martin has been changed to FS.

Tahiti TX4T operation : Feb 2010
|
|
G3TXF writes "Nigel G3TXF joined Jacques F6BEE, Phil FO8RZ and Gilles VE2TZT for the TX4T DX-pedition from Tahiti in French Polynesia in Feb 10. The biggest surprise was the sheer size of "French Polynesia". From the Marquesas in the North, to the Australes in the South this hugely dispersed group of islands covers an area similar to the whole of Europe. Tahiti was tantalisingly close to both FO/a and FO/m (relatively speaking!), but these two remote DXCC counters will have to wait for another DXFC adventure!"

Interesting way to see a new one!

zs6ez writes "My most recent addition is Antigua, V2. It more-or-less fell in my lap when I had to help move a Gulfstream III from Texas to Johannesburg, and we needed a stop just before crossing the Atlantic. Antigua turned out to be the best choice. The layover was fun, with an evening spent listening to a metal band (not heavy!) and the early morning spent swimming in the Caribbean for the first time. The other two stops (D4 and 9G) unfortunately were dupes."

2009 gave me 7 new DXFC points, and a few exciting experiences too. I made a side trip to Lebanon from Abu Dhabi early in the year on Emirates air miles and had a quiet 24 hours in Beirut. Quite surprised at how many 'shot up' buildings I saw. A quick refuel stop-over between Amsterdam and Abu Dhabi gave me a quick foot-print in Bahrain thanks to the generosity of the KLM aircrew. A day trip to Kuwait in May gave me the opportunity to meet Hamad 9K2HN and see his fantastic shack and downtown antenna farm. In July I was fortunate to be able to do the IOTA Contest from Alex GD6IA's shack on the Isle of Man. Rafiq JY4CI was a most excellent host when I made an overnight stop in Amman and I even managed to run a short pile-up at the JY6ZZ club station. Some business in Damascus meant that I spent a week there in November. No radio, but I managed to get to Busra, an archeological site with ruins going back through thousands of years. In December I took the Sofia - Moscow express from Bucharest to Kiev, which took 27 hours (not bad for 54 Euros including couchette), and I spent the day with the well known QSL printer Gennady UX5UO. Gennady gave me a first class lunch, a tour of Kiev and dropped me off at the airport, for which I am grateful. Sadly I got my money stolen at the railway station, but I won't let this taint my view of Ukraine!
As far as 2010 is concerned I have a plan to do SP, LY, YL, UA2 and EW by train and plane to WRTC at Moscow in July. Who knows where my work will take me, but I'll ensure that I can engineer some new ones en route!
Finally let me wish seasons greetings to all DXFCers and best wishes for 2010 to you all.

F, BY, VR2, PA and finally at home
|
|
Another business trip to Asia. Ten days of trade show and meetings with customers but two new point obtained in the very short free time and thanks to the flight transit: visited VR2 - Hong Kong and QRV from BY-China as IZ4AKS/BY1RX. Unfortunatly I miss a quick visit to Macau but was really not possible.
In any case: DXFC 4EVER!!!
