Stay tuned for more surprises!
The DXer.ca website site has been on the air for 28 years and is listed as a resource in the 2018 edition of the World Radio TV Handbook!
XHDATA reviews coming - finally, new content on this website!!
XHDATA radio has sent me a unit to test out and we are having fun with it - stay tuned for an update/review of this radio and some desperately needed new content on DXer.ca
Reprints, reprints, we've got technical reprints!
I have been a member of the International Radio Club of America on and off since late 1975 -- that is a long, long, long time in any calendar system. One of the more active writers over the years is the venerable Nick Hall-Patch (who has been my neighbour and buddy since 1975!)
He has written a lot of technical articles and there are 100's of them over here on the IRCA website -- go have a look see.
We will be focusing more on the technical side of things -- and yes, the DXer.ca website has been stagnating a long, long time now.
Here is the entire flipping list!
