DX MAGAZINE’S Most Wanted Survey comes to an end

Carl Smith, N4AA, editor of QRZ DX and the DX Magazine, announced this 
past week...

“For the past few years I have been comparing the DX Magazine survey 
results with the one available from Michael Wells, G7VJR, on his ClubLog 
Web site https://secure.clublog.org <https://secure.clublog.org/>. I 
should note here that Michael was inducted into the CQ DX Hall of Fame 
in May 2015 honoring him for his service to the DX community. The two 
results have consistently closely paralleled each other. After serious 
consideration, it seemed to me that the ClubLog’s Most Wanted 
information would adequately serve the DX community. The one conducted 
by The DX Magazine would not offer enough difference to justify the cost 
in time, or money, for it to continue. I want to thank the thousands of 
DXers, world-wide, who have supported The DX Magazine survey for the 
past 25 years. You have provided your fellow DXers with a valuable tool 
and I believe I can speak for at least most of them in saying THANK YOU.

The DX Magazine <http://www.dxpub.net/DX-Magazine.html> will continue to 
provide DXers with the stories of DXpeditioners traveling to the far 
reaches of the earth to provide you with those cherished contacts 
from rare and exotic places. I want to encourage the organizers/leaders 
of those DXpeditions to continue offering their stories. By telling 
others, who, what, where, when and how you made that operation possible, 
the story can be the final chapter of the DXpedition. It might also 
inspire others to make the effort to organize their own DXpedition, or 
to at least make a donation to the next major DXpedition.”
