The ARRL is no longer publishing annual DXCC Honour Roll listings. Instead, there is now a daily update of the current list on the Web.

This list was extracted from the DXCC Honour Roll as it stood in 2005-06.

DXCC Honour Roll membership is restricted to those DXCC members that need less than ten countries confirmed. Totals do not include credit for deleted countries. For this list, there were 335 countries, and at least 326 current credits were needed to make it onto the Honour Roll.

ZS4TX has joined ZS6EZ at the top of the Mixed lists, with all countries confirmed. ZS5NK and ZS6YQ are tied for the top spot on Phone, each needing one country. On CW, ZS6EZ remains the top station with four needed. ZS5NK has made rapid strides on Mixed and Phone, raising the expectation that he will quickly eliminate his needed slots.

No-one is even close on RTTY, with the highest South African score in the 170s, barely half of the required entry level!

As expected, Van van der Watt ZS6LW has now dropped off the list. With the addition of Ducie Island, Van suddenly needed 10 countries, making him ineligible for Honour Roll status. An era has ended, as Van was the first South African to reach the top of the Honour Roll, and still the only one to have done so on Phone.

South African members are:

335 ZS6EZ (341) ZS4TX (340)
334 ZS5NK (345) ZS6YQ (375)
