I wonder if I somehow can select the one approved to be the one which counts towards DXCC, thus moving it from "Pending" to "Awarded"? Any clues from a reader of this blog?

My new HamClock
I show the ISS footprint, for the occasional APRS signal from/to it, and DX cluster reports from zones near where I live.

10 bargraphs and progressbars for the LCD of the Arduino
There is a total of 10 different bars and here are the two which are used in the upcoming version of the Multi face GPS Clock.
The main design principle is that no more than 8 custom characters should be required per bar. That means that the custom character set is uploaded just once for each bar, giving much less probability for wearing out the LCD character memory with its presumed finite limit on the number of write cycles.

EA8/LA3ZA April 2023
The best bands were 30 m (29%) and in particular 10 m (65%) with a lot of contacts across the Atlantic ocean as the picture shows. In total 62 different entities/countries were contacted.

3 tips for not blowing the finals of the QDX transceiver
But first, I do actually have experience in blowing the finals. That happended under testing prior to leaving, and all it took was 9.5 Volts for my 9 V build and what I thought was a dummy load, but which might have been an open circuit load. One BS170 developed a short between drain and gate with the result that 9.5 Volts was passed directly into the outputs of the driver IC5, 74ACT08, so IC5 blew as well.
My three tips for avoiding such failures are:
