Now that the Tribune award has been established and has become a popular Award to acheive, what is beyond Tribune?

I seem to remember someone mentioning Senator a while back and Frank, KB4T has made some good suggestions about attaining the next level.

An all band challange would not be easy to attain. Indeed it would take a great deal of air time and good propagation to do that.

Fortunatly the sun is going to cooperate with us in the near future, so all band may not be so far fetched as it first sounds. We should really try to get some DX in the mix some way. The bands are starting to open up a little to the EU and we should try to begin filling that void in our logs.

Maybe there should be a little mix of DX QSO's also.

Let's get the ideas coming in and see what develops.

Off topic of Tribune but a DX award sounds fun.
I've worked a few of our EU skcc DX using Andy's
sked page in the past week. Maybe another modular
type award for dx to allow it to grow?
DX25
DX50
DX100
