  The combined Dyson-Schwinger and Bethe-Salpeter equations in rainbow-ladder
approximation are used to search for Regge trajectories of mesons in the
pseudo-scalar and vector channels. We focus on the often employed
Alkofer-Watson-Weigel kernel which is known to deliver good results for the
ground state meson spectra; it provides linear Regge trajectories in the $J^P=
0^-$ channel.
