[SFDXA] DX Marathon Program

[Bill]

 From Tedd Mirgliotta (KB8NW):


“Some of you are aware that the program known as TBDXC has shut down 
after a very short time in operation.  It
was formed to attract DX’ers who believed that the only DX’ing in the 
world today was through the use of CW and
SSB.   The program purportedly allowed DX contacts in those modes only 
but after their investigations, they found
out that so many of their participants were in fact working digital 
modes including FT8.  Mark Wohlschlegel, WC3W,
the current Program Administrator of the DXMarathon Program stated that 
“hams like all people like to have free
choices.  FT8, RTTY and other digital modes are part of ham radio which 
for years has prided itself in innovation.”

Mark is reaching out to any past participant in the TBDXC program to 
come join the DXMarathon Program.  He
further states, “We give DX’ers choices.  If you wish to work SSB or CW, 
or Digital, or all theem you can compete
on that basis, no problem.  We welcome with open arms any past 
participants in the TBDXC program to join our
DXMarathon Program.  If you remain focused on CW, or SSB, you can enter 
using these modes only."

The DXMarathon Program is the fastest growing program in DX in the world 
realizing a +32% increase in
participation in 2022.  If you have any questions, feel free to email
