Chicago Area DX Club

Founded 1973

Updated October 31, 2007

The Chicago Area DX Club (CADX) is made up of people with an interest in shortwave and other radio listening and monitoring.  The club has a monthly e-mail publication, "DX Chicago", which includes loggings and information on QSLs, AM/FM/TV and MW DXing, Band Scanning and a Utility column.  In addition, there are quarterly "get togethers" or meetings, where members meet to discuss DXing and the hobby.

Membership Information:       

Contact Christos Rigas, DX Chicago Editor DXChicago@earthlink.net

Membership is free and open to all radio listeners whether living in the Chicago area or not.  We encourage members to regularly contribute to the monthly e-mail bulletin, "DX Chicago".  The most recent issue of "DX Chicago" can be found below.
