The International DX Convention is the world's foremost DX convention. If you are a DXer or interested in any aspect of

Meet the big guns from the US, Asia, Europe, Africa and Oceania. Meet the people on the other side of the mic or key. Shake hands with the person you have had that sked with for the past 10 years. Renew friendships. Don't forget your YL! We will have something special for them as well.

Top DXpeditioners from every continent tell you how they did it. Learn the secrets for big signals on the top band, how to have fun and adventures chasing IOTA, contest forum, antenna forum, DX forum, seminars for everyone from the seasoned pro to the beginning DXer.

Attend the traditional Saturday night banquet where great friends and good food are met with lively presentations. The Sunday breakfast buffet has terrific selection and variety. Enjoy more presentations and the parody, "Are You Smarter
Than a DXer." This year there is a twist!

Visit the manufacturers' midway where you can talk to the people who design and use the latest and best equipment. Don't forget the raffle prizes which top even the famed Dayton Hamvention!
