[ADXA] The "Good Ole Days" of DX'ing

[w5zn at w5zn.org]

Greetings ADXA Folks,

When were the "Good Ole Days" of DX'ing?

Well, that depends on who you ask! ADXA is about to begin our 56th year 
of existence. We still have one of the original members from that first 
meeting on June 29, 1987 with us - San K5YY (K5HQS back in those "good 
ole days").

For me, it was when I first started DX'ing back in the early 70's. Those 
were some very good ole days. Receiving a signals from a distant land on 
my little radio built from a kit was magical.

So what's your point here, Harrison? Its simple. We've just come out of 
almost three years of world lock down due to a pandemic. The world 
literally stopped. Our DX world stopped and went in to radio silence. 
Its now November 2022 and I just updated our website to note that T88WA 
is now ON THE AIR! ADXA folks, that gives us 4, yes FOUR DXpedition 
currently on the air; P29, J28, 5V, and T88. Two have just ended, TY and 
VK9 and three more scheduled to fire up this month.

There is literally more DX out there than you can shake a stick at ! 
After a three year drought we're now drinking from a fire hose!

These ARE the "Good Ole Days" of DX! So, you know what to do........

GET IN THERE AND WORK 'EM !!!!!!!
