[Mldxcc] DXCC Question

[SHIRLEY ROSE]

Dick,
  Below is a copy/paste from the ARRL web site:
 
Q: What is, and how do I qualify for, the DXCC Honor Roll?
 
A: There are two Honor Roll categories. The Honor Roll is achieved by working a number of entities equal to the top ten of the overall current country count. For example, if there are 338 current entities on the DXCC list, the number needed for Honor Roll is 329. Deleted entities do not count towards the Honor Roll. There is no certificate for the Honor Roll. An Honor Roll sticker is provided for the mode for which Honor Roll was achieved, Mixed, Phone, CW and/or RTTY only. A plaque is available for the DXCC Honor Roll and #1 Honor Roll. 
(See http://www.arrl.org/awards/dxcc/rules.html#si for samples of the Honor Roll plaques). See Section I rule 1(t) for more information about the Honor Roll.

Before I call ARRL HQ, I have a question for the group.

Over the weekend, I worked # 330 for CW DXCC. As I understand
the DXCC rules, to make Honor Roll, one has to have confirmed
329 'current' countries. As three of my credits are for 'deleted'
countries, that would make my 'current' count 327. According
to ARRL CW DXCC listings & my LOTW/DXCC count, I have
328 with no distinction for 'deleted' countries.

My question...which count is 'correct??

BTW, IMO, working the balance of the list seems to be almost
impossible. I need 7O, P5, for instance. Does anyone know if
the op at TL0A does CW??

See y'all at Shingle Springs!!

73,

Dick
